Found 2 places

Innovative lighting

They are a good company with fast shipping. They also have some great deals on PC light bulbs.

Drs Foster and Smith

This is what Raven was referring to. I have spent hundreds of dollars with this company. They are a pleasure to do business with. They will be expensive if all your buying is the bands because of shipping.

Hope this helps

Oh yeah, on a side note I don't use these bands. I find the clips hold the bulbs in place fine. I would only use the bands if you have the bulbs hanging over open water.
