besides AA batteries is there any other source of power supply?

Yes there is. It's known as the "CA-PS700A".Link:Canon Compact Power Wall Adapter CA-PS700Of course that isn't exactly portable since it would have to be plugged in to a wall to run. So if you are looking for something more "anytime anywhere" friendly without the use of typical batteries, you could get rechargeable AA batteries. They save a lot of money in the long run since you don't have to buy a ton of batteries. I really mean it when I say you would use a ton of regular batteries because cameras tend to suck batteries dry pretty fast, especially if you use the flash a lot. Yes there is.

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

AA batteries...can't remember though if they came with the unit or if I had to supply.

I've been using AA batteries, but there is a power input on the unit labeled DC 4.5v

none that i know of, but battery warehouse should carry something as they say they have everything

I also recommend getting the AA battery holder. AA are everywhere where outlets are sometimes not.

Yes, particularly low self-discharge AA's like Sanyo Eneloops. For a compact emergency multi-day outage situation, consider adding a Powerfilm AA (4 AA version) folding solar panel to charge those batteries.

From what I have experienced, there is not "battery" on this product. So it has to be plugged to a power source.

There's PowerEx but there's been some problems with those even though many people probably are fine with them they are not really low Self Discharge batteries. I highly recommend the high capacity Eneloops but you could try the PowerEx's but i'd read the reviews first to see if you really want to get them.

You can use regular AA batteries. I love the Pocket Wizard X, however they don't have an auto shut off feature so I recommend getting a lot of batteries.

Can use a 6V 1000mA AC adapter, but not included. Uses 4 AA alkaline batteries. Batteries last a long time.

If the device has a cable with a USB tip, the AbsolutePower will provide power and charge from an A/C outlet. It's not a backup battery source, though.

You can purchase the Celestron Power tank which is a long lasting external battery with a couple of cigarette lighter style inputs (among other functions) to source power from. Google 'Celestron Power Tank'.

The instruction booklet says to use 2 AA batteries or an AC adaptor with an output of 4.5V DC/500mA, not included

you can use a battery or a transformer or the low-voltage output terminals of a circuit board -- basically any source that provides AC or DC in the specified range.

You can use rechargeable AA batteries. However because of their limited capacity compared to the Lithium batteries that ship with it you may not be as many or even a complete recharge of you device using rechargeables.

I have disposable AAA batteries in mine, I'm sure you could find some rechargeable batteries online if you wanted to though
