The url below has 2 battery options (Compaq Presario v5000):
http://www.batteriesplus.com/products/548-0/6673-Notebook-Laptop-Batteries/133203-Compaq/Presario-V5000/2735-2969-Presario-V5000-Series/1.aspx

I'm not promoting Batteries Plus (nor am I speaking against them).  If you
find what you want, you could try searching eBay using the specific battery
model number.

Good luck,

Andrew
