The battery pack is just two NiCad AA's welded to a set of contacts. It's
very easy to fix this on your own - if you don't have a spot-welder
in your household, solder will do after you roughen up the battery contact
surfaces. (In the past decade I've gone through
a HP15C and a HP41, but it's the HP25 that I still prefer...)

Tim,
I have a battery spot welder and repair HP batteries (and calculators),
contact me directly if you're interested in getting it fixed.
