No it does not run on batteries. It has to be connected to an ipod cord or dock.

No batteries required. It is powered through the pins via whatever you dock it too, much like docking your phone/iPod.

It does not run on batteries it gets it's power from the docking station that it is plugged in to.

Hi! It is actually powered by the device it's plugged into. Works pretty well too; comm between iPhone can go a decent distance away from this device and still play your tunes.

Yes it will charge the battery. Once u get the battery in the charger make sure the light is on. That let's u know the battery is connected correctly. Once u do that u just plug the whole thing into an outlet.

It will charge one at a time but it can charge pretty much any batteries you have. It works for all types and scales of batteries. Hope this helps.

No batteries. It charges by plugging it into the USB port on a computer. (No data transfer...the USB connection is simply for charging.)

It does in fact charge deep cell batteries properly, however, I would advise you consider buying another unit. The instructions are in three languages, and is so tiny, you may need a magnifying glass to read it.

I haven't tried a battery pack, but I've plugged it into my laptop (via USB) and a wall outlet (via USB / wall adapter) and it charges just fine. I'm sure a battery pack will work too.

Nope !! I've tried that ! Lol. It only charges the battery and the USB whole plug in . If you want that capability you might as well buy a portable charger. I've boughten 2x 12$ from Amazon already. Great stuff.

I think it works just with battery. However, be carefull buying this because mines just worked for 1 month and after that never again!

Sorry, I didn't use it to only charge the batteries. I just use for devices with the AA or AAA battery.

No, it charges with the usb cord. I bought a separate charger and two batteries for $18.00 on E-Bay.

it charges fully and the batteries work for several hours, depending on how long you play at one time.it grate I'd recommend it.

It does charge. It charges the OEM batteries and the original battery as well. Its more compact and handy than the original charger...

I've only used this to recharge something that has run down and it works very well for that. I've used it for phones and tablets (including iPads). That being said, I am fairly confident that it would prolong the charge on a battery. By how much, depends on usage. I'm very happy with mine.

Yes it does, see the little silver button in picture one on amazon, it's actually an plug. At first it seemed that it only works on battery power, but I keep mine plugged in (to a battery backup/ surge protector) without a battery in it. And I have opened my unit 2-4 times a day- every day-for over a year without 1 problem.

Yes - it'll charge devices that can be charged with a USB charger. I use it for my iPhone and it works on my partner's Galaxy. I haven't had any problems with the batteries...

Yes. This does this exactly, at least when plugged in. I'm not sure if it can charge when it is playing from batteries. Surprisingly good sound although the stereo gets lost as speakers are too close together. But for the price, I think it's a good deal. I really like it. Have had it almost two months.

Yes it does. And like I mentioned---best to use it till the battery is used up then recharge it right away and store it charged. It will stay charged for quite a while. I found that it gets the full potential out of the battery doing it that way. hope that helps!
