It comes with an AC adapter and, for those who use Porter Cable cordless tools, it can take power from Porter Cable 20V tool batteries. But enough of this, you can get all this from the specs. What about the important stuff like how does it sound?
I have to say that I don't think you can find better sound at this size. Heck, I don't think you can find better sound at an even larger size. This little guy sounds terrific! (Note that this is in comparison to the armored radios made by other tool companies.) The radio sounds great, your iPod or iPhone (or any other bluetooth device) sounds great. You can also just plug it in to your MP3 player using the supplied cord but, as with any player, it doesn't sound nearly as good as using the built-in Bluetooth. The only other toolmaker radio I could find was DeWalt, and that's done using a $35 Bluetooth dongle. And that's the point! It has Bluetooth built right in! As Dr. Sheldon Cooper himself once said, "Everything's better with Bluetooth!"
Seriously, paired Bluetooth sounds much better than plugging a cord into the headphone connector. (But this radio has that capability if you need it.) That and the conveniently small size make this a winner. The one I got for my son for Christmas gets used all the time and it's been terrific.
