Hi Hub

Try the Star Headlight and Lantern Company, Honeoye Falls, New York. They've been in business since 1889. We buy all of our lanterns from them. Their products are very rugged and reliable. I used one for years as a car inspector and can attest to their virtues. Shoot me an email if you have any questions.
