Tl;dr: Get a Skilhunt H04 RC

$0-40:

• Sofirn D25LR: ~$25, nice white LED and red LED, simple UI, traditional headlamp, hidden Micro-USB charging port, 18650 battery included, my full review here, buy this if you just need a basic headlamp*
• Sofirn HS10: ~$20, 1100lm, ultra-light, right-angle, moonlight mode, USB-C rechargeable, 16340 battery included, magnetic tailcap, pocket clip, poor regulation, pretty LED, cheapest headlamp I would buy. Also on Amazon for ~$30 if you need it fast. Sofirn HS05: is similar but trades built in USB-C charging for dual-chemistry 14500/AA support.
• Sofirn SP40/SP40A LH351D 4000K: ~$35, ~900lm, nice LED, right-angle, pocket clip, magnetic tailcap, Micro-USB charging port, 18650 battery included, poor regulation, no moonlight, simple & easy to use
• Wurkkos HD15: ~$35, 2000lm, right-angle, pocket clip, magnetic tailcap, USB-C charging port, powerbank function, flood/throw function, 18650 battery included, multiple body colors available, moonlight mode, poor regulation, more complicated to use than the previous options

$40-70:

• Skilhunt H04 RC High CRI: ~$60, ~600lm, right angle, magnetic tailcap, pocket clip, high CRI neutral white emitter, best-in-class headband, good UI, good regulation, magnetic recharging, moonlight mode, 18650 battery optionally included, my review here, there's also a mini version
• Thrunite TH30 V2: ~$60, ~3000lm, right angle, extremely floody and bright, high efficiency and sustained output, not very pretty emitter, USB-C rechargeable, 18650 battery included, moonlight mode, pocket clip, no magnet
• Sofirn HS20 SFT40: ~$40, ~2000lm, traditional headlamp, high CRI neutral white flood emitter, cool white throw emitter, great UI, poor regulation, USB-C charging, can work off powerbank in cold conditions, 18650 battery optionally included, dedicated button for each channel, my full review here
• Thrunite Thrower: ~$50, ~1800lm, right angle, very throwy, USB-C charging, 18650 battery included, moonlight mode, mediocre headband, poor regulation, gets hot fast, no magnet, no pocket clip, my full review here, buy this if you need a headlamp that throws REALLY far

$70+:

• Zebralight H600Fc MK IV: ~$90, ~1500lm, excellent durability & efficiency, high CRI neutral white LED, floody beam, light weight for its class, best-in-class regulation & efficiency, ultra low moonlight, no battery nor charger included, only works with unprotected flat top 18650 batteries
• Acebeam H30: ~$130, ~4000lm, traditional headlamp, high CRI & red secondary LED's, great runtime and efficiency, 21700 battery included, hidden USB-C charging port
• Armytek Wizard C2 Pro Nichia just because so many people bugged me to add this to the bot, top-notch durabiity, lovely high CRI LED, great efficiency, magnetic USB charging, 18650 battery included, above average headband, bike mount included, weird user interface

SOME THINGS TO NOTE

• right-angle lights are extra versatile because they can be detached from the headband and used in a variety of other ways, often including a pocket clip or magnetic tailcap
• Moonlight mode works about as well as red light for preserving night vision and it's a lot simpler and cheaper to implement than a secondary red LED. Here's more info if you're interested. Red is also a poor choice for use around sleeping people because red light passes through eyelids very easily. Red is great at not attacting bugs though.
• Li-ion batteries don't like sub-freezing temperatures all that much. If that's your use-case, consider CR123A's or a light that can run off a powerbank that you keep warm inside your coat.

MISCELANEOUS NOTEWORTHY LIGHTS

• Emisar DW4: The ultimate enthusiast headlamp. A million different emitter options, several driver options (including dual channel), long and short tubes, RGB aux LED's, Anduril 2 firmware, and magnetic tailcap. Kind of heavy, can get expensive, battery & charger not included, and the headband isn't great so pick up a Skilhunt HB3 as well.
• Petzl Iko Core: The absolute best running headlamp I am aware of. It disappears on your head.
• Thrunite Thrower: throwy for a headlamp, good for riding a skateboard or something where you need to see far ahead
• Nitecore HU60: electronically focusable, bracelet remote control, powered off USB so you can run it off a power bank (can be kept inside coat in extreme cold weather), powerbank/battery pack optionally included
• Fenix HM61R: similar to Skilhunt H04 RC but with secondary red emitter, worse UI, & worse main emitter

Nice mod. I bought this one recently to make use of my existing stack of 18650s, very happy with it https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09MFBYN2C
