    I'm confused in what you're asking here. Are you asking how to get a new battery or are you asking how to get the power meter to not say 94%? The power meter just simply won't work if your battery is dry, it's probably calculating what 0/0 (0 divided by 0) is which has no correct answer. In order to find the new battery you obviously need, consult Toshiba or checkout eBay to see if folks are selling this battery.
