Please look into using battery plus or ordering the battery directly from Inoi. If all else, fails searching for the battery on a website like Ebay would be my next choice as they have sellers selling all sorts of electronic products on the website.
Sounds like your alternator went out or not making good connection at the battery terminals, preventing the battery from being charged. If the battery does not charge, you will use up the battery energy to maintain the vehicle running UNTIL you deplete the battery. the more accesories you have on, the faster it discharges till the point of killing your ignition on your engine. You definitely have a charging issue, more than likely, your alternator went out.
on the backside of the alternator there should be a large black/grey wire. check to see if there is battery voltage on that wire. If there is not than you have a blown fusible link that is inbetween that wire and the battery. If there is power there than check for power on the dark green with dark blue wire. There should be power anytime the engine is running. If there is no power than there is a problem with that wire in between the alternator and the ASD relay.
Check those two out and let me know what you find.
Alternator, rectifier or regulator. Chances are greater that it's the electronics rather than the coils. Check the AC voltage going into the electronics, and then check the DC voltage exiting it.
The easiest way to check if the battery is charging is to put a volt meter on the battery. See if the voltage increases when you rev the engine beyond the battery's engine-off voltage.
If the battery is fully charged and get low quickly after an operation, this is an indication that the battery itself is dying. You have to replaced it with new one to back in normal operation again.
Hope I helped you.
Have a nice day!
Thanks for using Fixya.
Get the battery & the alternator checked (Autozone, O'reilly's or even Pep Boys can do that for free). If the alternator is out or going out, it's not charging your battery - that means everything electrical in your car is now trying to run directly off the battery & draining it (it doesn't take long - especially if the lights or A/C is on). If those check out ok, take it into a mechanic & have them run a diagnostic - you may have a relay out. Good Luck.
You can try this.You can buy inexpensive system testers that have Yellow Red Green lights that will give you a better idea of your charging system.Strauss Stores,Auto Barn,Pep Boys have them.Some plug into gig lighter,some have clips to go on battery/connections.You have to get the motor started to use,so jump or charge the battery.I'm thinking loose connection,bad ground.Good Luck.
My INOI also has the same problem. It says "PARTITION ERROR" when I turn on (using the USB drive plugged into the computer). Upon reading and researching on the Internet, I feel that the battery inside may be weak for startup. Looks like installing a new battery would help ??
