    Can you list any reason of this comment rather than pure bad humour?

    AC is used as one of the powering options.
    Use rechargable set of NiMg batteries for rest.


  • Not seeing any reference to AC anywhere in this list. All I see is DC either battery or 12V.

    Looking at provided link I see AC (120 volt AC). So, no problem with this
