You do need power. I ran mine from a lightbulb adapter. It is WiFi for the connection to the Internet. If I remember correctly you need to set it up first via a wired connection so you can tell it your WiFi network name and password.

No, it is meant to work only on a battery. It works well but unfortunately, it cannot use a wall outlet.

yes it does require wiring to a power source, block is just that a block with no wires.

The device does require external power. It cannot run off of USB or eSATA power alone. So, yes, it does plug into an AC outlet if that is what you are referring to.

Sadly, no. Just old school power plugged into the wall. Kinda annoying if you ask me.

No it needs to plug into the wall. I returned it. Could not get it to work consistently over the internet.

Yes it does. This unit is not battery powered and must be plugged into a wall outlet to function.

No, the system requires a power source to turn on and operate. Must have 240v utility system to run.

No, it is a stand alone device. You can plug it in to the wall to save battery power.

No it does not. You would need to add a timed switch to control the power .

No, it actually comes with a power cord. You connect the cord to the bottom of the front of the device and plug it into the wall. I prefer it to battery powered.

Mine did. It just plugged into the wall. The unit is quite flimsy however. If I had it to do again, I would probably go a different direction.
