2 of 9: The nearest one is in the room with the battery-operated machine.
3 of 9: It's in the nearby corner with the bed and dead body.
4 of 9: Another one is under an overturned bathtub outside the red shed, between it and the fence.
5 of 9: Blast the tub away with the gravity gun to find the battery.
6 of 9: You can find another one up high on the little windmill platform, near the two barrels.
7 of 9: Use the gravity gun's Secondary Fire mode to pull the battery down.
