is there a battery pack option to make this portable for outdoor use?

No, if you would like to use this on a battery you would need an inverter. The AC/DC version is the 300AD. The specs on this strobe are pretty much the same as the AD version. Great light for the price.

You'll need to find a 12v battery pack. Most portable cell phone battery recharging packs are 5v. Call audible rush - they'll have some ideas. You might be able to use one of these https://www.powertraveller.com/en/shop/portable-chargers/outdoor-adventure/powermonkey-extreme-12v/ to get a charge while on the go. Another possibility is to mount a 12v bottle dynamo (most are 6v but there is a 12v on the market) and power the rush this way.

It does not take batteries. I have a power converter in my car, and I have plugged it into that to use while traveling, but it really is not meant to be terribly portable.

Looks like the only option is to recharge it. I don't see any removable part where you can put a disposable battery.

The battery pack is not replaceable as in a cordless tool, but I Imagine could be replaced if one has the skill to disassemble. I plan on doing this when the time arrives for new batteries.

It is supposed to be able to work from battery power, so that you can hang it anywhere without a power cord. But mine arrived without the battery option at all. When I questioned this, they said that the battery powered version was not being produced anymore, and they refunded my money without making me return the item.

Look at this website www.walkabouttravelgear.com You can buy a small plug power convertor to match your needs overseas. I hope this helps.

No, unfortunately it's not. Yet, it's still quite portable... The power cord can be removed from the back, so it's easy to just pack up and take with (provided you have electricity).

Not really. It's too large to be portable. It's a nice product and a GREAT value but not really ideal to knock down and set back up.

Hi Cynthia, A battery pack can be used. If the electric is out for less than an hour, it probably won't matter. DON'T open the lid during that time... What you want to search is "uninterruptible power supply," or UPS

I have disposable AAA batteries in mine, I'm sure you could find some rechargeable batteries online if you wanted to though

Unfortunately they DO need to be plugged in all the time in order to be used. For outdoor use you will need a portable power source. I recommend Paul C Buff's Vagabond Mini Lithium portable power. It's light weight, easy to carry and it costs less than $250.

No cord John....it runs off of D batteries. Totally portable, good for any outdoor use.

You can tie it directly to the battery. If you are handy you can make a detachable plug as well to make it convenient. It comes with open leads.

The outdoor unit must be plugged into a power supply before use. We did that, but the battery would not charge.

It's 20 pounds. Pick it up, carry it outdoors and plug into an outdoor outlet. But if by "portable" you mean battery operated walk around, no.

There is a model made that is battery operated but not this one . Besides this one has constant power you wont run out.
