Easier and will be cheaper in the long run to buy a new pilot version and replace entire existing tank.
Then you could resell the used tank with electronic ignition on craigslist as long as you inform the buyer that you were having issues with getting to to light. Someone else my be looking for parts or a project.
I have a pilot model and kind of like the simplicity of the minimal design, works great and uses no battery power. Once and a while I think that it would be nice to flip a switch.. But not at the prices they want for the electronic ones..
