I have 2 types of head lamps. One is made by Energizer and is tough as nails. There are two buttons on top; one for spotlight mode and the other for flood mode. Each mode has high and low power.
The other head lamp is an Amazon special (ie; no-name Chinese) and is SUPER bright! It has one button, but 3 choices; high, low, flash, off.
As for the different modes and such, I use them all. There's lots of times I don't need high power, so I use low power. Also lots of times I need high power. And yes, the flash mode comes in mighty handy when trying to get someone's attention or when chasing away a skunk in the dark of night.
Not a day goes by that I don't use a head lamp on several occasions. Don't know how I ever got along without them!
As for your question, I think you might still be able to find an older headlamp that uses a halogen bulb that has a simple on/off switch, but 1) it will be expensive, 2) it will be heavier/bulkier due to larger (probably lead acid) battery, and 3) shorter run times as the halogen bulb uses more power. Such head lamps used to be used in mining, but also in dog sledding. Don't know about mining (but can take a guess), but dog sledding has pretty much fully switched over to LED.
One thing you could do is to buy one of the newer head lamps along with a small switch of your liking and wire it in. This will work on head lamps where the battery is at the rear of your head. There are also head lamps with battery worn on belt, but been a long time since I've seen them as I just haven't needed that kind. That kind might also have a simple on/off switch.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
