Don’t know the answer but a suggestion is to open the player and remove the battery and then check what ''battery model number'' is printed on the battery.

Once you know the battery model number, seach online for ''(insert model number) battery'' to hopefully find suppliers.

Here’s the ifixit [guide|1230] guide that shows how to do this.

Unfortunately the images in the guide ( and also in several YouTube videos showing the battery replacement procedure for the player) don’t show the model number as it is on the other side of the battery when it is installed. You only get to see a barcode, which doesn’t help.

There are also a YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M70AjXOlbqM|video] showing the battery replacement procedure for the player where the part number is visible, (view at 2:52 minutes into the video, top right hand side of battery) but it is too small for me to make out what it says, you may have better eyes than mine though.
