9V
AC
By default all batteries are DC not AC. SO there are no direct battery options. You could run a battery to power a converter but that whole solution becomes cumbersome and you need a good voltage converter

thanks kirk - sort of what i thought. a small inverter is about $40 - maybe i will look into that with some batttery pack. or maybe just a differnt interface for remote work. thoug most of the usb powered interfaces are only 2 channels and usb 1.1...

If you go the inverter route you should get one that provides a good wave on the conversion so you don't end up with dirty noisy power. And IIRC most inverters are power hogs so you need to run a good sized battery (spec wise not size) As for USB I run a Sound Devices USBPre2 that can be a standalone also. But it is USB 2.0. They used a USB 3.0 jack because of the beefiness. Or how about a Motu Ultralite? It's USB 2.0 & multi channel although I think it is only 2 mic preamps in that.
