The batteries are currently only available from Astak (i checked the Jinke web page and they do not have one for the V5 only the V3). You have to call the Astak customer service number (1-866-368-8788) and do the order over the phone (their website does not currently have the option to buy the batteries). Cost was us $17.99 including shipping by USPS. They told me i could send back the original battery to have it replaced but i did not want to go thru the hassel. Additionally the batter is holding a slight charge so my mother is able to use her Reader for several hours before the battery dies. I did not want to deprive her of it while waiting for the new battery to arrive in the mail.

I have bought 3 of the PP 5" (2 as gifts) and so far only the one device has had any issues.
