Does it use batteries? If so what kind? If not how would I power it?

Your kidding, Right? 110Volt from the grid. Maybe enough batteries with a big inverter could spin it?

No, it does not use batteries. It is an alternating current motor, and it can be operated with 110V or 220V electricity. You will need to run a wire into the junction box on the side of the motor. I suppose you could power it by wiring a heavy duty (12/3 AWG rating) extension cord into the junction box and then plug that into a regular wall outlet.

It runs on 110 volt AC current---the stuff that's in your wall outlets. Or 220 volt, found in your fuse or breaker box. You also need a suitable switch to turn it on and off. If you don't know these things, I suggest you get an electrician to hook it up. Better safe than dead.

Single phase is 110 volt, no batteries exist for 110 I believe. Hope this helps!

No my friend, it is no battery powered, you need to connect it to electricity.

It does not take batteries. I have a power converter in my car, and I have plugged it into that to use while traveling, but it really is not meant to be terribly portable.

As far as I know it doesn't use batteries. I don't see any place to put batteries on mine.

You can plug it in and/or use batteries. Battery life is quick with much use, so we keep ours plugged in.

it must be plugged into a wall socket. Or if you have a power inverter you could use a 12vt outlet. It does not have a battery in it.

It does not use batteries. I CANNOT be used on household current. It is for automotive use ONLY.

I don't see anything for it to run on batteries. It stays on electric current. It has an AC/DC adaptor.

it has to be plugged into an electrical outlet.. it does not work with batteries .. mine is mounted in front of an outlet and you can not see the cord

It comes with a its own power supply that must be plugged in. While it would be possible to power it from batteries I don't think it would be practical, it would drain them pretty quickly.

Yes it is battery powered but not with a rechargeable battery. You can buy rechargeable batteries or just keep using regular batteries. The battery life is short though! We've only used the plug in.

Yes, it does use batteries. I think AA is what it uses. I put them in when I got it and have used it several times and it is still going strong. (maybe 10 uses so far)

It can use batteries or be plugged in, it comes with a power converter to plug it into a wall.

It only works by being plugged into an outlet. It is not made for batteries.

Plugs in and takes batteries. I guess you could use rechargeable batteries, but unit will not charge them.

It doesn't use batteries. It works like the igniter on a BBQ. I believe its called piezo electric.
