An AC/DC receiver design is a style of power supply of vacuum tube radio or television receivers that eliminated the bulky and expensive AC-only mains transformer. Having no mains transformer, receivers could operate from a DC supply as well as an AC supply (i.e., "AC/DC"), a feature which became less important as DC domestic electricity fell out of use. The design was maintained regardless due to its lower cost.
