Power sources
You can use the recorder on house current or an LR6 (size AA) alkaline dry battery.
It is preferable to use the recorder on house current when recording for a long time. When using a battery, make sure it is a new alkaline dry battery to prevent operations (e.g., recording and editing) from failing due to insufficient battery power.
Battery life
The battery life may be shorter due to operating conditions, the temperature of the location, and varieties of batteries.
