Does this have a socket for an external power adapter? 8 AA batteries would probably be 6 or 12 volts depending on how they are installed.

YES, it can accommodate external power. There is a jack on the bottom for DC 6 -12Volts also a USB jack. However it is REAL good on batteries, even regular cells last many many days.

I've been powering it through an AC adapter. It doesn't look like there is space inside to put a battery in. However you can always grab one of these:Battery Holder for (8) AA with Standard Snap Connector : BH383 (1)and attach a regular input cable. You will get 12V out, exactly what this little baby needs.

Yes! The 8 D-cells in the lantern keep the rechargeable batteries in the four individual light panels charged. There is no external power source connection to the lantern.

Get a battery charger specifically designed for the 8.4v battery. Go to www.airsoftgi.com. It is a great source for everything you will need.

Mine didn't come with any adapters for external power sources but it has a standard jack type so I was easily able to get an adapter at Radio Shack. The adapter I got wasn't the type for a car but those are easily available for that jack type too as far as I know.

I've never needed a power adapter; it works great with the batteries only; it takes 6 AAA Batteris....it is a seperate purchase for the power adapter.

I have the new version which uses 6 AA batteries. I now change batteries every week so they go pretty fast. There is built-in no port for an adapter but you can use rechargeable batteries. Or get someone to create an attachment for the adapter

Can use a 6V 1000mA AC adapter, but not included. Uses 4 AA alkaline batteries. Batteries last a long time.

if it will fit in the battery compartment you may have to change connectors.this is roughly the size of 8 aa batteries

Exactly!! It holds 8 AA NiMh batteries. No charger. You charge the batteries separately.

It requires 8 AA batteries (not included). You can solder in a connector for a lipo battery too though if thats what you prefer.

I just got mine and it came with four just like the description. However it does not include a AAA battery adapter, but it does not say in the description that there is one, they may have changed what was included.

If the adapter has the attachment needed and the voltage selector has the amount of power required. it can be used to charge with an external battery.

It works on 12 volt batteries only. I have never seen an 8 volt secondary battery. You could test 6 volt batteries by connecting then in series.The tester will indicate that the battery needs charging if connected to a 6 volt battery.

an 8 AA battery pack. You can wire it for wall plugin too, you need a 12V converter
