What does the battery look like and where would it be located?  I 
dont know how to change it or even where it is.  What kind of 
battery should I buy to replace it?

Dear Jeff,
try to make an effort...
I can't tell you where it is , as I didn't look at, but it should be 
obvious when you open the brain, (the SDS9 one !!!).
TURN IT OFF before opening !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have you never seen a battery ?
The type is written on its surface...
Replace it by the same(!?) or ask the seller the equivalent !
It's not so difficult !
As they say , "just do it" ! Everything will become clear .
BYE.

I opened it up and I could not find any thing that looked like a 
regular battery.  I want to know what it should look like.  The only 
battery looking thing was a thing that looked like a watch battery 
and I could not get it off.  Is there even a battery in there?

IF you can't do it by yourself, go & see an electronic instrument 
dealer who does maintain & repairs electro stuff !!!Don't take the 
risk to break any fixing part...
You're on, the way !

Thanks guys.  Now I only have to find someone to fix it.  If this 
does not fix it would someone want to buy it? I would sell it for 
cheap.  Go to ebay and put in this item#:  2523726262 that is my 
simmons kit that I bought.  He also gave us a rack for it that was 
badly beat up.  We took it painted it and set it up.
