Caveat. I an not a current night vision user. I have however spent a lot of time reading over the least few weeks about different sources, as being in Australia the US Govt. ITAR regulations make it hard to go and buy US made off the shelf products.
I believe the following to be correct, feel free to verify for yourself.
For your illumination needs:
Pulsar/Yukon are a major manufacturer of Gen1 night vision. Along with Dipol they appear to be the best of the current crop. Pulsar provide torches and lasers in the 808 (near visible)& 940 (Non visible) bandwidths.

Dipol provide lasers in the 805 & 850 bandwidths. I don't know if they have a US distributor, if they do the product is probably re-branded. I've seen Dipol advertised under several different importers house brands in Britain, Canada and Australia.

TNVC sell a long throw 805nm LED torch for $240:

Or you can buy an 850nm LED torch for $30 from Hong Kong and spend roughly the same modifying it to be a long throw:

Or there is this guy in the UK producing amazing LED illuminator designs:

A very good source of info on do it yourself Digital NV is
www.nightvisionforumuk.com These guys use home modified IR torches and CCTV camera scope add ons to take game out to 150 meters or more.
As for ATN, Have a read of the night vision forum at AR15.com or at
http://www.nightvisionforums.com/phpBB3/index.php. ATN have a poor rep for customer service.
American Technologies Network is apparently a Ukrainian trading company, buying from various Russian and Belorussian factories and sticking their own labels on them. I'm fairly sure their Gen 2 monoculars are made by COT, their PVS7 copies by Belomo, their 'Gen2+' Image Intensifier Tubes by Ekran, all 2nd line companies behind the Russian Dipol & Dedal for scope bodies & Katod for IITs.
Yukon/Pulsar doesn't try to hide its Eastern European origins and the Yukon & Dipol Gen 1 gear is quite popular in the UK as an add on for use behind a day scope.
Yukon Gen2 tubes appear to be low end Ekran or Melz tubes, though, so stick to their Gen 1 stuff or save for Gen III.
If you have made it this far, keep the following in mind. A powerful IR laser is not eye safe. People blink when visible light lasers are pointed at them, thus to a certain level they are considered eye safe as the blink reflex kicks in before damage is done.
The IR beam doesn't kick in the blink reflex and burnt out retinas and blindness are possible if pointed at someone.
For that reason I'm inclined to go with a powerful LED IR torch.
