Yes, this radio can be plugged into an outlet. I use the batteries when I want more portability so I can hear music while working in my garden. (It requires six C batteries) Karen

This radio only runs off AC power (120volt). I can not remember if it has battery back-up for the clock. OBTW this is a very nice sounding radio with the ability to work from a number of sources .

Yes current will be converted to 110. But I will advice to check the product manual. Thanks

The radio is powered by a 6 volt transformer, aka "wall wart" (or its batteries). There is an American, Asian, and European version of these transformers. It needs to be negative polarity with a minimum rating of 500mA.

Hi. Newbie here :) .... if i hook up an inverter to this, would i then be able to plug in items to it? such as a radio or light? Thanks!

Hi. No, that is 110v only. You would need to purchase a converter. Thank you!

Yes, you will need to connect it to an electrical outlet. It connects to the power box that comes with it that turns it on and off, and that is what needs to be plugged into the 110. Hope this helps.

All you need is a USB cable and it will charge rechargeable batteries. You will need to change the settings to rechargeable batteries though. You can't beat this radio for the price!

You can plug it in. We have ours plugged in the kitchen most of the time. This radio gets great reception.

Not sure what you mean. The radio works off of regular power or batteries. Your device (phone or iPod) connects via Bluetooth, but this radio does not charge the phone or iPod.

The manual has a picture of it---it's a two-prong polarized AC piug. This is not a battery-powered radio. The battery is only for backing up the alarm setting if there is a temporary power failure.

The radio is sold internationally, so that for greater voltage should be available. Please check with the seller. I really like mine. I know that it uses a transformer for a 8.5 volts in the USA. There should be some sort of what you need there. It is just a matter of voltage. It does use a transformer. I know that. I know there is a converter to go from voltage of other countries to that of the USA. Surely there is the opposite too, if needed.

The unit may be used either way, batteries or 110v. I had a convenient outlet, and chose to go that route in order to not have to periodically change batteries. Unit works 100%.

This radio has a standard bare wire that has 2 parts. 1 for positive (or hot wire) that has a fuse attached. the other for negative (or ground). You can wire them to the battery. What I did is connect the wires to a cigarette lighter adapter & it worked out just fine. I hope this helps.

This radio is available in many countries around the world and make specific models for countries that have 220w. We recommend that you purchase a 12v power supply instead since the radio also has that option for power.

You are correct - the manual is useless. So neither do I know how to operate the radio. When using it on batteries it comes on by itself (runs down batteries needlessly). After losing power, either from run-down batteries or being unplugged from ac it loses all memory of station sets and time. Directions are not clear as to how to set time or preset stations. I'm ready to toss it.
