Electronics, Lighting, & Gadgets - Need replacement battery holder for Dinotte

Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.
To make a long story short, the battery holder for my Dinotte (4 AA's) went bouncing down the road at high speed. It broke. I have some cheapo holders from an electronics kit but they don't work worth a darn; bad connections, intermittent, etc.
Who sells a quality replacement? Radio Shack, maybe?
Are there any other battery pack configurations that would work?
Thanks in advance.

DiNotte's online store has two of the holders for $3. http://store.dinottelighting.com/shared/StoreFront/default.asp?CS=dinotte&StoreType=BtoC&Count1=639446437&Count2=556586861
Radio Shack item 270-383 $1.79 is similar to the holder Dinotte sells. Probably came off the same Chinese lowest-cost supplier factory line.
