Basically, a helmet that gives off light like a torch (Possibly, to make it less powerful, light equal to a redstone torch.) You could add a button to toggle it on and off. The only problem I see with this is it making exploring caves less dangerous, even though not placing torches leaves everything behind you dark; therefore, monsters will spawn. I think it should either not give you armor bonus or, if it does, it'll still break and then be lost.
Crafting:
= Probably any normal armor type. Or, if you take away the armor aspect, you could make it glass. = Torch/Redstone torch = Redstone = Air
He was merely stating that this idea is definitely not original, has probably been considered by Notch already, and also appears in this board at least once every other day. He suggested the OP go and search this topic to see responses and whatnot.
Erm, well Notch MIGHT add Lanterns, but I like your Idea. I think it should be something like this though...

Well, at least you checked that thread first. Most don't check at all. That's a step in the right direction.
Anyway, search bar's down, but next time, Google: "site:minecraftforum.net [search words go here]"
