I never gave it a thought before, as today except for portable and farm sets we power the rest of them off of MAINS, but when in an ACDC set the drop cord gets replaced with a cap, the set stops being an ACDC and becomes AC only.

Though this is not even important anymore, I am writing this for those relatively new to the field so they did not expect it to work off of batteries or any DC source.

It won't blow up or anything, simply the filaments and pilot light won't light up.
