why do some people say the battery cord is not supplied?

Battery is a separate item. It can be charged while on the unit or with separate, stand alone charger.I purchased the separate charger to allow me up to 16 hours of battery life, without external power source.

it soud come with the unit. maybe they want you to purchase it or they lost it but it should come with the unit, mind did.

I read that also, but the charger I bought from Amazon did come complete. It works great

I don't know. I bough the external charger from Main Clinic Supply through Amazon.com for $20.00 and it came with the power cord. Might be you could it out through Main Clinic Supply. Good luck.

On the side of the radio there is a jack for the electrical cord. It does not come with a power cord. I use the batteries since it's a portable radio and the batteries do last a long time. If you want to use a power cord you can get one from amazon.com or ebay and you can probably find something inexpensive there. If you plan to use the radio a lot than it's worth investing for the power cord. If you plan to use it infrequent then the batteries is all you need. Hopefully this will help.

This unit isn't battery powered. Don't know why they don't show the cord in the picture. You need to plug it in to a wall socket. :-)

The version I bought (pictured to the left) has a cord, but my friend bought one that is battery operated. Personally, I would rather have a cord than worry about changing batteries or having to replace the unit because you cannot replace the batteries.

In the directions that came with my device, there is no reference to charging the battery, only to replacing it. In specific reference to the cable, the directions speak only of transferring data to a computer, not about charging the battery.

Mine have a cord coming out of a hole that is then plugged into a wall socket. I would think if it's battery operated the battery would be outside where you would be able to recharge/exchange the battery.

There's no cord. The battery is recharged by plugging it into an outlet with their special plug/shaver holder.

On the left hand side (as you look at the radio) there is a jack for a power cord. I don't remember if the power cord came in the box or not. I never used it-just batteries. And they last a LONG time in mine. I hope that helps answer your question.

The one I bought has a power cord, not a battery pack. Sorry I couldn't help.

Mine came with a cord you can plug in for it to run or you can use batteries. Did yours come with a cord to plug in? Might just be defective like mine was

No, your cord still plugs into the computer charging the battery, just buy the battery. I have had my battery for about 1 1/2 months with NO issues!

The battery should have been included. If you contact Amazon, they will make it right.

I have place for a battery but there is no battery included with mine. The unit comes with a power cord.

You may want to contact the seller. I didnt have such issues. You may have already done this, but to double check unplug the power cord just to make sure the battery is working.

Not to sound rude my man, but why would they give you a charger but not a battery? That would be jacked up! But yeah my man it comes with a battery.

I think it's just because the battery is fully or almost fully charged. You can try to use it for a while then recharge to make sure.

I think that must be an error in the description. There were no batteries with mine, nor did it need them.
