When plugged into the AC adaptor, do the batteries recharge?

Great question, never tried with rechargeable batteries but this is the best Mighty Bright unit hands down.

No, the batteries will not be charged when the AC is plugged in. However, I have noticed that the radio will run a long time, many hours on the batteries alone with no degradation in performance. Not sure how many hours since I have yet to exhaust the batteries.

Yes, it came with rechargeable batteries and a charger (AC Wall adapter). The car auto adapter is not included, but the same one that works for the other Innotabs works for this one.

My units came with AC power adapters. Do not know about batteries I always use AC if possible

I have 2 sets of rechargeable batteries and I don't think if you plug it to the ac will recharge them

I believe just like any re-chargeable device (Phone, Tablet, speakers etc...) the battery will become charged as the device is being used.To the best of my knowledge I believe that it uses the AC power. Never the less, the device still receives an increase in 'charged power' as you continue to use the device, as long as it's kept plugged in to an active outlet. I hope this helps.

The answer is yes but I do not use that the AC adaptor. I use an external charger as the AC adaptor limits me from using the equipment while the battery is being charged.

Yes, mine came with a DC adapter (transformer) that plugs into an AC outlet.

No. It is recharged by using any standard mini-USB cable and 5V adapter. It uses 3 standard AA batteries. I have lots of rechargeable AA and AAA batteries on hand for all my doodads and just used those for myself. The batteries last a very long time in this radio. I've had the radio for many months and use it a lot but have only recharged them twice. This is a great radio for a long trip in remote areas. The Amazon description says "lithium ion batteries", but it's wrong.

Yes when the boombox is plugged in with the AC adapter it will charge your device. It will not however when you have the 6 D batteries so it can conserve the life of the batteries.

Yes, and the batteries and the adaptor seem to work great. I don't have any complaints.

This device does, indeed, work well on AC. There is an adapter in the box. I've been using my box almost daily since I got it. I keep it on at least 5-6 hours each day. I used the AC adapter once after the battery died. The battery will recharge while using the adapter.

Yes with or without adapter plugged in... will work without adapter cord once charged

Yes. When the battery is installed in the headphones, you recharge through the provided USB connector.

The phone does not require an ac adapter to recharge the batteries. It uses the current present on the phone line to trickle-charge the internal batteries when the line is not in use.

Yes. In fact, I use it ALL THE TIME running on the batteries and only plug it in to recharge.
