Will it work without the batteries... plugged in all the time?

The batteries are not removable. You must charge it periodically. It has never gone dead on me, I just plug it in to charge from time to time. I believe the battery life is given in the specs- something like six hours between charges- plenty of juice for a teacher. You will not use it plugged in, I don't think, because this amp is very portable. You can walk around and would probably not want to be attached to the power cord. (emergency charge only!)

Yes. I leave it plugged in all the time since I leave it connected to my TV. Still working great. Used it today.

No... Unfortunately you have to use the plug in. But it is really worth it! :)

Yes as long as you keep it plugged in. The battery on it does not last long.

Yes it can. It comes with an AC Adapter. I usually keep mine plugged in. There are no batteries.

Not at all. Leave the batteries in in case you need them. Plug it in when you can.

No-It appears to work by an automatic switch. When plugged in battiers off-[unless you have rechargeable batteries-then they are charging]-other wise the regular batteries are bypassed when it is plugged in. Michael Barnes

In my case no, as I bought it "used" w/o batteries. The batteries I had for other tools I owned worked with this item.

no it will not but you do not need batteries, it will run using the usb interface on your computer or a usb adapter, you maybe able to find a usb battery powered adapter....

I think it will work plugged and if power the takes over. You would have to be sure the batteries are good if you use it with just the batteries. We have not really used in this capacity yet.

It needs to be plugged into the wall socket at all times. No battery operated function.

No, but as stated previously, it does last quite a long time on batteries. Also, I'm sure you have an extra adapter around that will work. If not, you can pick and inexpensive one up at Radio Shack or a similar place.

It does not work on batteries. It must be plugged into an electrical socket.
