Battery/AC power question

[Disastrous]

Hey guys,

New 404sx owner here with a quick question:

Does the unit use batteries at all when it's plugged in? As in, does plugging in the unit automatically switch off battery power?

I quite fancy keeping batteries in it, for if I want to move away from my desk, but not if they will just get run down whilst I'm plugged in, if you see what I mean...

It doesn't drain your batteries while using AC power. Don't worry.

Sorry, I don't know what stacks are?

I'm talking about AA batteries versus the AC power cord, if that helps?

Ahah yea! But here in my country "pilhas" means "stacks" and pilhas are the same as AA batteries, so i Just put it on google tranlator and got confused. Now i know!
