You can plug it in to recharge it, and I have used it while plugged in. I believe the instructions say not to do that, but it works.

You can plug it into any outlet. But i wouldn't buy it. It leaks and works poorly.

This item doesn't have an internal battery. It has to be plugged in during operation.

It can be used both ways. It has a battery pack in it so you can unplug it and use it away from a power source.

It is a plug in. This roller is powerful. You would not want one that operates off a battery because its efficiency would diminish. Hope this helps.

You plug it in. I works pretty well. It has better power than the battery operated kind.

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

i guess if you want to be absolutley safe about it, you could install a circuit breaker. i run my direct off the battery, works fine.

Yes it is battery operated but the batteries seem to last quite a while. I'm pretty sure that you can plug it in too, if you have the right cord (not included) but that would not be that convenient if using outside.

You would use the battery power if there were no electrical outlets such as in the backyard. It comes with a charger so you just plug it in the outlet.

You can do both. It has a cord which you plug in and it also has a place for batteries.

Either. It can use batteries or use the ac adapter. We always use it plugged in but it does have battery option.

It takes batteries or plugs into wall. You can operate it either way. I like mine.

Only if you are using it as a tree decoration. If you want it to function, you must plug it in.

I use it both ways. Sometimes battery gets low half way thru a cut, do I just plug then in and continue on

Absolutely not. Unit operates when plugged . Once you unplug ,if turned on ,starts operating using the batteries.
