can you all help me identify the fan that could replace the ones I have in my current light fixture? Maybe where I can get them? Here is a picture of the old fan. Thanks

start w/ current usa, those guys have amazing cs even for old discontinued stuff just like this.
I'm often amazed what they still have, and often mail you for free.
At the very least, they will tell you best resolve

This looks to be a fairly standard AC fan 80 x 25 mm. I found an article about how to replace these and what to replace it with here

Reading the article, it looks like he is replacing the AC fan with a DC fan using a somewhat complicated strategy. You can simply buy an AC fan that replaces yours.

If you don't mind changing to a DC fan you can easily find one that moves more air and can have the speed controlled. I like Noctua IP65 or IP67 fans for this. They are quiet, water resistant and durable. You would need to wire it to an AC/DC wall wart instead of the standard connectors in the light, though.

Ok I will try that. I probably will just go with the ac fans. I can only find ones that have cord the into wall outlet.
