The 12" that I have came with a battery pack to hold 8 x 'D' size batteries. Although I have not used this battery pack, I'm assuming that it would give at least 3 to 4hrs of motor use.
Also I found that the scope didn't actually come with a power cord that could be used with a std cig lighter socket. The ONLY power cord was that which was attached to the battery pack noted above.
I happened to have another cord which is suitable & can be used from a cig socket.
