Does the unit have an 'AC' jack or is it only powered by batteries? I assume I'd have to buy an adapter but I'm just wanting to know if it's possible.

The instruction booklet says to use 2 AA batteries or an AC adaptor with an output of 4.5V DC/500mA, not included

Yes, there is an AC Power Adapter that comes with the CD player. It strictly runs off electricity. It is not equipped for batteries. I gave this as a gift to my aunt (age 77) and she loves it. I was surprised it does not take batteries, but she is very happy with it.

There is a USB cable but no AC Adaptor. It uses two AA batteries. The AC Adaptor can be purchased separately. It does not charge the recorder it replaces the battery power.

This unit has no batteries. It is only powered by an AC adapter that must be plugged in to a wall outlet.

For those that purchased an ac adapter...where on the unit does it connect? I can't seem to find a plug connector anywhere. Also, what model adapter did you purchase? This unit would be perfect IF I can power it thru an outlet. Thank you very much! - Brian

It has an optional AC adapter kit. I bought the unit without this. I use batteries because I need to be portable.

It has an ac jack, but you'd have to buy a power car adapter, separately. This model may skip in a car, though. Not positive, but I don't think it's advertised as a car-ready model with shock protection.

Mine came only with a USB cord, no AC plug. Good luck -- it seems to be inconsistent!

This unit requires either batteries are AC electrical. It does not have a rechargeable battery.

One of the versions does come with AC adapter. There is an other version that operates on battery only.

We purchased this AC adapter: LEDwholesalers AC Power Adapter with DC Output Jack, 12V 4A, 3228So no batteries... not sure if that's an option as this is the only thing we've done. Works great and plugs into the outlet which is connected to the light switch.

It has batteries (4 AAs) but I don't see any place to plug in an ac adapter.

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. :-)

I don't believe there is an AC adapter available. Curious as to why you would want one? Battery life is pretty long. I like being able to pick it up and take to wherever I'm working without having to be near a plug.

I ordered mine from Musician's Friend awhile back and it did not come with the power (AC) adapter. You can power it up with batteries and it works great, but if you plan to use it for an extended period I would recommend getting the power supply. Mine did not come with the unit and as far as I know it is still not included when you purchase. I ended up buying the recommended adapter just to avoid getting something that wouldn't work correctly but a lot of people found cheaper adapters that apparently worked just fine.

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.

Mine came with an Ac cord. The description says it is battery powered, mine does not have a battery, just a cord. Sorry I can not help
