This requires 8AA batteries if you dont get the AC adapter but I highly recommend getting it. **Q: A case to put all inside?** A: It doesn't come with one but they do make one. **Q: Why this telescope does not ship to United Arab Emirates ?** A: May be because it is considered an electronics device.
