A: A DC adapter is basically like a battery except it is conditioned from an AC source. To change over measure the voltage when fully operational then switch to battery that have the same voltage as the adapter. the only concern should be the power required

How do you reset a Motorola 3.6v?
Not a lot of info here, but if it's a battery operated device, just disconnect (remove) the battery for a few minutes. It should bring about a `hard reset` of the microprocessor.
Will 9v 300mA power adapter work with a 9v 700mA device?
No, the adapter's power output has to be equal to or greater that the current draw of the device.
If an electronic device can be operated by battery or household electricity what would it be considered?
Usually the term AC/DC applies. Sometimes "dual power" might be used.
Why is the adapter in most cars called a Cigarette Lighter Adpater?
Because pretty much all cars come with a small device inside the adapter, that uses the battery power to heat up the device, allowing people to light their cigarette. A bit more info:Not too many years ago, all cars and trucks came with cigarette lighters, which were used for that purpose alone. This was before the advent of cell phones, ipods, laptops, GPS, etc., that required power from the car battery. As the use of electronics has become so common, the cigarette lighters have been changed to be used more for that purpose than lighting cigarettes.
What does 8-hours of battery mean?
It means the battery will operate a device for 8 hours before recharging is needed.
Is a battery considered electricity?
The battery is not electricity. A battery is a device that stores energy in the form of chemical energy. When energy is taken out of the battery, it comes out in the form of electrical energy. And if the battery is rechargable, then energy is put into it also in the form of electrical energy. A2. There is sometimes a confusion, amongst non-technical people when discussing electrical items. A distinction is made between an AC mains operated device and a battery operated device. Calling the mains device 'electric' and the other 'battery'. A battery operated device is also 'electric', The current is DC and the voltage usually a lot lower (and safer) than the domestic supply. So yes. A battery operated device is electric. Batteries do produce electricity.
Can a battery operated device be changed over to electric?
Yes. All you need is a battery eliminator with the right characteristics.

Can you charge battery by mechanical energy?
No. There are, indeed, ways to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, but a battery is not usually designed to do this. You can convert mechanical energy to electrical energy by another device, but the battery itself has to be charged by electricity.
