I want to grow 2-3 medium-size plants indoors. I have a perfect spot, but no electrical outlet. Is there a battery powered LED grow light for this kind of thing?

No. Battery powered lights will not produce anywhere near enough light to grow a reasonably sized cannabis plant through harvest.

Cannabis is much like a tomato plant. It needs a good amount of feed, light, and water to produce its goods.

For 2-3 small plants you’d want a minimum of 100 watts

Get a heavy duty extension cord and a ground fault protected power strip..

Thanks for saving me the trip down the rabbit hole.

Thank you. Looks like it will be in the garage now, if my wife will allow it.

Totally get where you're coming from! I've had success with battery-powered LED grow lights for my indoor plants, and they can be pretty effective. When I was setting up my space, I found that lights with adjustable brightness and a timer made a big difference in keeping my plants happy without needing a power outlet. Just check the battery life before you buy; you don't want to be swapping out batteries all the time.
