Query: Battery is hard to find and doesn't last

The so-called "long-life replaceable battery" is impossible to get without going through the manufacturer. I have had the scale since 2002. It is a nice scale, but pretty worthless without the battery. I got a replacement battery by going through the manufacturer once, but it was quite a hassle, the battery was expensive, and it is already dead again a couple of years later--and the scale is hardly used. Please comment on this review if you know where I can find a battery.
