Dead Thinkpad x60 battery needed (Thanks a lot)

If someone have a old dead Lenovo Thinkpad battery (Better to be 8 cell for x60 or similar model, e.g x60s, x61, etc... ),
Can you do me a favour and give it to me.
I'll pick it up if you are within 25 miles from San Mateo, California.
Or I can pay for the shipping if you are far from me.

Basically,
I don't want a battery that will cause battery light to blink in Amber.
I need a batter that can't hold charge for long. (So it's almost dead)


The reason I need the battery:
My x60s battery was working fine several days ago, then it suddenly dead.
It's out of warranty and also not belongs to the recall category.

So I opened the battery and found that the small circuit inside was bad.
All the battery cells are still in good shape. So I would like to get a old battery
and change the small circuit.

(Right now, if I solder a jumper wire, I still be able to use the battery, but the computer
reports it can't be charged. Before solder that jumper wire, there is no voltage on the
out pin due to the malfunction of the circuit. )
