Does this have an AC adapter or does it run solely on the battery?

It runs solely on the battery, but the battery seems to be lasting way longer than the stated 3 hours of run time. I know I've forgotten to turn it off several times and it is still running hours later. I'm not at all unhappy with the battery duration.

No AC adapter. The batteries last about a month. My daughter uses it all the time for her daughter.

It runs on 1 D battery however it lasts a long time. We have left it on several nights on accident and it has still been alive in the morning.

Out of the box, it runs on 3 'D' batteries; however, it has a slot for an adapter. Here's a line from the instructions: "Note: DC Power Converter available as an accessory and can be ordered online at www.petmate.com"

It runs off batteries but you need a connect to the computer. Mine had one with it.

Yes it does, runs on ac or batteries. Cord un-plugs from radio, but does not have room to store it.

AC only. You would need your own inverter and a DC power source if you wanted to run on batteries.

No, it doesn't run on battery. It gets its power from your PC when you plug in the USB connection.

No, there is no AC adaptor, it runs with two AA batteries. Mine lasts probably 2 months with maybe 30 minutes of use a day as a usb device or out recording. I would say an awesome battery life.After dropping mine once, the spring by the negative side of the battery isn't pushed out all the way. Not sure if it was my fault or a bit of a weak point there.

It has a USB AC charger included which could be plugged in while playing. The battery lasts so long and charges in a couple hours, I've never had to run it from the ac adapter.

No. It does not come with the adapter. I just have it running on the 2AA batteries.

Yes, works with AC adaptor only. I don't even put batteries in unless I'm going to be using it where AC isn't available.

No A.C. adapter, batteries only. Mine is in use 10 months now. There is a low battery light. The back of the unit has a recessed cable channel like the idea of an adapter existed at one time.

It does indeed include an AC adapter and alternatively will work on batteries. Nice scale.

Yes, it will run quite a long time on just the batteries (I haven't plugged mine in for a couple of months). When it is plugged in, the battery serves only as a backup, so it doesn't run down the battery power if you have the adapter. The adapter isn't technically necessary if you are happy replacing the batteries when they run out, but I like having it to save the batteries when I'm just keeping it in one place.

Yes this radio has both an AC Power adapter and can also run using 4 "C" batteries.

The one we have has an AC power cord. I do not think it has adapter and batteries

It has a AC cord and was suppose to run on batteries but the one I received did not run on batteries.

This unit is electric and plugs into a regular 110 volt outlet and I don't think it runs on batteries just mainly regular electric power. Have a good day.
