I used to have a head torch, though that was before the days of LEDs. Not much use for open country: they suppress normal night vision.
You can get red LED torches that do not affect your night vision.

I can completely understand the use of high powered headlights by these cyclists on the road, but on this footpath for oncoming pedestrians (or cyclists) they are completely dazzling.

The 1byone driveway alarm provides a solution to alert you the moment someone enters your property. It's not only very convenient but also extremely affordable.
When movement is detected, the Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor sends a wireless signal to the receiver from up to 100m/328ft away. Adjusting the receiver, you can choose to be alerted by a high or low chime or alarm tone, or instead, with just a silent LED flash. What's more, the receiver can pair with up to 50 sensors, effectively securing a large area. We offer many combinations of sensors and receivers, just choose what best fits your needs.

We bought some a few years ago for one of our building sites where getting power to it was a problem - that's still going strong apparently. I just bought a similar one for home - their price fluctuates on Amazon so pick your moment to buy.
