Help!

The light bulb in my cordless rechargable soldering iron broke when I dropped
the iron a while ago.  Unfortunately, I have had no luck finding a replacement
lamp.  It is a grain of wheat type of lamp (well, maybe a bit larger than
a grain of wheat), with two wires coming out of the base, and a lens to
focus the light on the top.  It runs off of two nicads.

Does anyone know of a place with a LARGE lamp selection (mail order or
San Francisco Bay area) that might have a suitable replacement lamp?

Unfortunately, I no longer have the box the iron came in, and the
company's name is not stamped on the iron.

Please respond via e-mail, because I am sure nobody else cares about this
problem.

Thanks 1E+6 in advance!!!!!
