I've said it before but I'm a huge, huge fan of LED headlamps.  There's 
a lot to be said for always having your light aimed where you're looking 
while having both hands free.  I have several headlamps but my EDC is an 
ArmyTek Wizard Pro.  It wasn't cheap but I think I could probably run 
over it with my truck and it'd still work.  It spits out a wide, diffuse 
light that doesn't have any central "hot spots" which means it's great 
for working up close but it has brighter modes that make it good enough 
for walking at night.

It does have an overnight USB charger but since it uses a bog-standard 
18650 li-ion battery, you can remove the battery and charge it in any 
li-ion charger that charges 18650 cells.  I have an inexpensive Nitecore 
i4 charger.
