Low voltage Fluoro lamp??

After many years of great service my Eveready "Sport Gear" hand held Fluoro lamp has died......
I used this regularly as a portable reference lamp for the spectrograph.

Looking around all the "hand inspection lamps" are now LED - no use to me for spectroscopy.....
Has anyone seen a low voltage Fluoro lamp - the best I can find is a 12V 5W unit in a camping website for around $30.
EDIT: Checking the tube - Dr Google test....it appears the tube has gone!
Found one ( F4T5/D ) in the US - $1.....plus $42 delivery!! - still looking
