When to Auto Zone and bought the best and most expensive on for $160. Figured if I was going to put in. 20,000 kW and its cost I shouldn't hesitate to do it right.

No, the small 12v "car battery" is NOT included. The specified size is Grp. 51. Kohler's is listed in the following URL for MSRP $95. I bought mine at Sam's Club for, I think, $65 and came with a full 3 year replacement warranty. Have had it for about 15 months and it has worked perfectly. Grp. 51 is a VERY small, odd size, but necessary to fit into the generator's built-in battery well. http://www.kohlergenerators.com/home-generators/products/20RESAL

Batteries are readily available in most Auto Parts Stores. They cost about $100.00, and no, they do not come with the generator.

No it does not come with battery. We picked one up at our local TSC (Tractor Supply) store.

There is a battery recommended in the manual. The best place I found to buy it was Amazon, but Interstate has them also.

It should come with batteries, if it didn't you should complain to the seller.

It comes with the battery. You can write down the number before you install it.I am sure Amazon sells it as it is common.You wont need a spare battery for some time as they last long.Best to put in a freshly purchased battery rather than one you had sitting for a year.

It comes with a proprietary rechargeable battery. Additional batteries are available aftermarket but they are not a standard, over-the-counter battery.

Hello! Mine came with a battery, and a device that avoids that it comes with a "dead" battery (You remove it, and then the battery starts to operate).

No, mine did not arrive with a battery option. When I asked, I was told that one was no longer available.

It's been a while since I bought mine but I don't believe it comes with a battery. But that's ok you will want a 2S battery instead.

It needs a 12v external power source to work. It doesn't have internal batteries.

Where doers the 12v originate. Ours did not come with any 12v unit. It had a plug but no powers supply

No. You need to get your own.They have a "usually ordered with" section that prescribes a standard, cheap 12-volt adapter.

I does come with the battery, though ultimately you're better off buying a battery from a battery store. There's no telling how long these have been sitting around and the one I bought completely died after a week of use.

You need to buy a power source which is either an adapter or a 9 volt battery. I went for the battery, so it's not a big of an issue, just the battery will do it. In the box, there's no battery included.
