is this operated by battery or AC power?

It has a plug on the side that fits into a spot so after you inflate the plug is nicely tucked away. No battery.

No it is not battery operated. Requires AC plug in. Also has a fairly short cord. Works great though. I use it for chocolate dip and hot cheese dips etc.

It's designed to be plugged in. I think it has a battery but it's only for when the power goes out.

It is electrically operated. It has the capability to operate electrically on batteries or via a separately purchased AC adapter. You could purchase - PowerLine 90366/12 600mA Variable Voltage Universal AC Adapter - from Amazon as it would require 4.5V, 600mA to operate. Expect the batteries to last between 3 and 4 months. I recommend the AC adapter AND the batteries. That way if the power fails, the batteries will keep the time set and require no additional intervention by you.

It is electric but I see from the previous response there is a battery inside. I had not realized it. Have been pleased with the unit.

It is powered off the USB bus. I use an adapter plugged into 110 volts to insure constant adequate power (because some USBs have more power than others).

Hi Bob-Yes, it is battery operated. I haven't used it yet, therefore, I am unable to provide feedback of the item.Karen

Nope, it's battery powered. If you ask me, it's kind of a pain in the ass. You have to have AAs on hand.

It does not operate on batteries or electricity. It strictly runs off the heat it is sitting on. This is to move heat only, not for cooling! So yes!

It is battery operated. Does not look like it's outdoor rated. Personally, I would not put this outside. Its not that sturdy.

This runs off of a low voltage transformer that plugs into an outlet. AC power... this won't run off batteries.

Both. I use it plugged in, but it has a spot for batteries that I haven't tested (looks like 2 AA? maybe 3?)

The unit is battery operated. The one I received did not include a battery.

It is not battery operated. It can be powered by the included power adapter or via PoE (Power over Ethernet), if you have a PoE capable switch. I am using mine with PoE since I have it mounted outside the house and Ethernet is more stable, secure and provides a faster connection to the network. Besides, using PoE requires only one cable be run to the outside (no separate power cable required.)

It Pulls power from the AC unit, batteries are primarily for backup. Otherwise, no it can not be powered with a power supply.

No, it's battery powered...3 double A's. Mine is still using the same batteries I put in it originally, well over a year ago.
