Does it work on batteries?

The Mini Controller needs to be plugged into an AC outlet. The controller used the wiring of the building to distribute its signal to its components, such as; lamp switches, light controls, and such. In other words its not wireless.

The X10 system sends commands to the remote units over your house wiring. This console needs to be plugged in so it can use your house wiring to talk to the remotes. There are wireless controllers available, but this isn't one of them. Actually, I prefer it this way - I don't have to worry about batteries going dead.

Yes, strangely enough, it does. But even though it takes batteries, you still have to wind it up to get it to work.

yes. but found after buying unit, batteries do not last, no matter what you use. buy a stock load of them. :-(

Yes. I've tested the camera using the wall outlet and no batteries....all functions work.

No, it doesn't run on battery. It gets its power from your PC when you plug in the USB connection.

Yes, as it is not battery operated. Works plugged in to an electrical outlet only.

No - does not work that. Also batteries will die fast if unit is left on continuously.

Yes, in fact I forgot it could even run on batteries. I've always only used it plugged in. I love it and use it every day to put my face on.I just checked underneath and, yes, it can run on batteries. Good to know.

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

Yes, It does operate on batteries. It has a compartment for 8"D cells. The one thing it doesn't have is a outlet for headphones. I found this kind of lousy, as sometimes I would like to listen privately and I can't!

Yes, but it doesn't work. This is too good of a battery to worry about the small stuff. Thank you. Robert A. Watson

No, it does not operate on batteries. You can use power over ethernet (POA) to power the camera.

yes, it works with four AA or you can , plug it into the wall. I have never used it with batteries. I just plug it into the wall. It does turn itself off after an hour...

I think it works just with battery. However, be carefull buying this because mines just worked for 1 month and after that never again!
