It does not use any battery. It connects to your source and the power is derived from your source i think.

I have no idea since it was a gift for someone. You can probably take it to Radio Shack and they can tell you what type of battery it needs. Hope that helps.

You CAN power it up via the USB Port OR the external Power Adapter. Using the external Power Adapter allows the plugged in( tested or augmenting) hard drive to operate more efficiently, It's another step but worth the small effort. Product support recommend connecting it that way... so that's what I did. If you do likewise you should connect the Power Adapter BEFORE connecting the USB Cable.

As others have said, it requires 12v DC. You'll need a power supply for operating it from household power.

How do I find out what kind of battery pack I need go the toy? Is it written on the toy?

It comes charged, so just give it an overnight charge. I've owned mine two years and I boosted it up about 30 min to an hour every month. It is still at full power because I don't use it.

Require a power supply: No; Batteries: My book says "to provide back up power". Others have mentioned that the batteries don't last to long

I don't think there is any battery in there. You need to connect it to a socket.

Ask the seller, if it is not in the ad. Mine came with a battery. I had everything else, didn't need anything.

It uses a CR2032 battery. I have not needed to replace my battery yet, but looking at the unit, I see an access plate on the backside of it. It can be opened using a coin. Replacement should be very simple.

You plug it in. I works pretty well. It has better power than the battery operated kind.

It wasn't noted when I bought it, but found out AFTER I got it that it was a refurbished unit. That thing was a piece of crap that was pretty much DOA and wouldn't even power up after a couple days. Good Luck!

You should at least be able to power up after 2 hours. I've always left mine plugged in overnite but they've been known to have defective batteries.

it takes a dime size battery, CR 1620 (one). If you bought it on amazon, and depending on the seller, it should have come with a battery. Good luck.

I don't remember what battery it takes because mine had the batteries were soldered in and I couldn't use it anymore!

External power adapter to power it. I've had mine for about a year with no issues. It backs up every night too.
