Hi Leon. I would be hesitant to do that. Unless you use a well-made, high-priced power
supply, these things could introduce a lot of noise/ripple into the circuit. Plus,
often cheap adaptors do not have a well regulated voltage.
However, using the battery in parallel with the adapter might help filter some of that
noise.
