An adapter/batter pack must be connected to mat to make it work. Read the description carefully -- you may be able to connect more than one together. I no longer have mine as my cats were smart enough to learn to step in between the electrical grids. Then they peed all over it.

it should not need anything special to have it work. I needed an adapter but has worked fine. I would contact the seller.

Yes, that is what I used. Works great. Need an adapter port for like in a cigarette lighter on the battery pack.

You will need to buy the power supply separately. Be sure you purchase one of correct voltage and amperage.

Yes, it will work fine. I'm using mine right now without the battery. My battery is bad (3 yrs. old) and the unit will lock up with the battery installed so I removed it.

You can buy a power supply to eliminate the need for batteries. Check the instructions or go to google for more information.

This does not come with a power adaptor. If you have one which outputs to 5v and less than 2.1A, you can use it to charge the battery pack. Usually your cell phone charger should do just fine. Check the specs of your cell phone charger before using it with this. Or you could charge it through your computer USB port. But this would take a very long time.

You need an adapter if you don't want to use batteries. I used one for a PSP and it works great.

It comes with an adapter so yes it will work. It won't without one because it's too small.

If you don't want to use batteries you need an adapter, not necessarily the recommended one. Just check the electric specs, there's a compatible PSP adapter (I bought one that doesn't fit EXACTLY tight but "electrically" it works fine).

I am not aware of this unit offering an optional AC adapter...Mine came with batteries only and battery power is the only way to make it work...

Yes...if it didn't come with it you will need to buy a power supply. This one will work:http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007TGO3HO/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1

I'm not sure. The one I ordered didn't come with an adapter, like it apparently does now. It's better to use batteries though, as everyone wants to carry it around and move it different places anyway. It doesn't stay in one place for long...

It comes with adapter. I wondered that too but ordered it anyway knowing my granddaughter wanted it. I keep it plugged in all the time in her room. I haven't even put batteries in it.

At least the one I bought did not came with power adapter. It requires eight "AA" batteries and the life if very low. You need to buy the power pack apart.
