Does anyone know where you can get the 35C (2.4V) bulbs for these lanterns? I found two EN6 batteries, now I need the bulb to go with them.

I have this exact same lantern. It does use two 1.5 volt cylinder type "EN6" batteries. These batteries can be found at Energizer. They are very expensive (about $20 EACH), but these puppies are about 52AH each (about 2 times regular alkaline "D" cell). Therefore, the light should run for literally days off of them. I'm using 4 "D" alkaline batteries in mine in 2 holders. I've retained all the original wiring and I've wired the holders together in parallel. It's a heck of a lot cheaper and still doesn't alter the original insides.

The batteries in this light were the round 1.5 volt batteries.Was there any special purpose for these lights.
