new stuff would be LED .. REI source .. or any backpack camping place.
I have a small headband torch for stuff like that in my tool kit. I also have another pocket torches that I use for doing my first use vehicle checks when I get to work (actually it is dual purpose, it has UV LED's in it too so I use it for checking currency to make sure I don't get hit with dud notes).
