That's your best bet. Alkaline AAs will likely last through most of a
day of speaking with the light off. If you're planning to do this for
months though, you may want to simply spend the price of one refurbished
battery pack on a good sine-wave 12v-to-120v inverter. The smallest
clean one you can find will do just fine, and then use the usual Newton
wall adaptor in that.
