Yashica Electro 35 Need Battery!

[Bach1701]

I have a Yashica Electro 35 that I got in mint condition but I cannot find a battery for this camera even at the camera shop. It is a 5.6 volt battery. It is a fat battery a little fatter than a AA and just a little bit shorter than a AA. The camera shutter seems to work with no battery in the camera but I need a battery. Any Ideas? thanks!
