I was able to find a site that sells them, but they are currently out of stock.

Okay, now I see what's going on. Unfortunately, the battery has been discontinued. The battery you need is model BP985 and every store seems to be out of stock or they've just stopped listing them.

I did find this from just over 8 months ago:

"Call Delta Electronics at 504 366-1753 and ask for John. Good luck."

I also found this website that seems to have them, but it requires a registration by the purchaser.
