How would you use batteries in a radio?

Usually, radios have a slot at the back or bottom where you can insert batteries (Often AA). If it does not have a slot, and isn't solar powered or anything, then contact the radio manufacturer, who will tell you how to use batteries. If the radio has to be plugged into a socket outlet and has no slots for any batteries, then the only way you can use batteries to supply it with power is to use an electronic power inverter unit. Several types are available. The most common can use a 12 volt battery and has a socket outlet into which you can plug the radio.
