Will it run continuously without electricity or battery power?

I believe you need the batteries to activate the ignition, I highly recommend this product, buy a 40 pound bottle, using the 2 1 pound bottles will only last about 6 to 8 hours. but I would recommend it for emergency heat, or for heating a small space. I would give this heater 5 stars.

Yes it will run only on the propane, you only need the battery if you plan to use the fan.

As others indicate, the heater will run as long as there's fuel available. The Ignition is a Piezo / hammer type spark generator.and does not use the battery at all The battery operates ONLY the fan. In my opinion - you won't need the fan. It works very well without it.

I have not tested it for that length of time without power but I would think that it would. The unit uses very little power to run the time circuit and LED display.

Hello you do not need electricity, it runs on the internal battery. When the battery is dead you purchase a new unit. That is what makes this unit so handy you can put it anywhere on a shelf, end table, bookcase on a wall. It doesn't have to be mounted solid to anything. Ernie

You would need to purchase the AC adapter (used in place of a battery pack) to run it continuously for that long.

Correct. Will work without power. Has a manual switch as well. Great switch for the price.

Cory......it will run with 2, TWO,100 watt solar panels wired for 24 voltz and then it will run with no battery.

Yes, it runs forever when it is unplugged. As a matter of fact, the clock was still running when I received it.

Yes! It runs directly in panel , no battery, I use it in my farms but I have fixed a 250 watt panel!

It'll run fine off of a 115 volt outlet, won't trip it. We run it off a small 115v 2000 watt portable generator out in the field.

no, it does not run on batteries, it needs to be plugged into an electrical outlet

Yes it will continue to run. It has a switch which you must manually use to turn on or off each time.

I have operated it for a week or two continuously in a hotel room with no problems, if you were outside I assume you would be running from a generator. If so just turn the power off. The box is well insulated so I doubt you would have a problem

It doesn't seem to require excessive power. Ours is pretty basic and it works fine.

Nope. It works without any external power source and yes it works just fine.

I just tried this and yes it will continue to work with no external power as long as the batteries are good. I started it and unplugged the power cable and it just kept going.

No. It runs on electric which can be somewhat of a pain if using it alone. It's got a lot of power and does an amazing job.

Hello my friend,The machine that you are asking about requires NO power supply at all. It is operated by hand crank and it works very well!I hope this helps you.Jim
