No Jo M., it is powered electrically. The electrical cord is generously long so you can plug it into an outlet without having to use an extended one. It's a really nice retro lamp I know you'll enjoy. Thanks for contacting me. ;-)

Yes, it is battery operated. It uses two "AA" batteries. If you use batteries you don't need the transformer. You would buy the transformer if you wanted to plug the unit in and not use batteries.

Yes. The lamp can be operated with batteries or with the AC cord. The lamp works best, i.e., more light, with the power cord than with the batteries, however.

Hello Zoe. This unit must be plugged in. It is not battery operated. HOWEVER, I would NOT suggest you purchase this unit. Very expensive and it does NOT produce much light. Better off buying a traditional halogen light from big box stores for $12. I gave my pretty green light away.

Yes it is batter operated. FYI, the lights are small and not very strong, but it's a fun effect for the price.

No, it's battery operated and I have to say I wish it did. The lights are very dim and the batteries burn out quite quickly.

Yes, it is battery operated. I can't remember if it is a AA or AAA but it is a common battery. It does have a light. It works really well. It is very easy to put it away without noticing the light is still on, which burns out the battery.

Not a silly question, but no, it is not battery powered. Fluorescent lights use ordinary household current.
