The surgical instrument (10) comprises a shaft assembly (400) defining a longitudinal axis, an end effector (500) disposed adjacent a distal portion of the shaft assembly (400), and a control rod (140) disposed at least partially within the shaft assembly (400) and being disposed in mechanical cooperation with the end effector (500). Actuation of the control rod (140) effects a function of the end effector (500). The first handle assembly (100) is configured for selective mechanical engagement with the control rod (140). The first handle assembly (140) includes a power source associated therewith. The second handle assembly (1000) is configured for selective mechanical engagement with the control rod (140). The second handle assembly (1000) is manually operable and is free from association with a power source.1/32
