A 1 watt IR laser diode used for burning wood. They show up on eBay for ~$100. Might start a fire though :-) Also has pointing issues.
Regular tungsten driven to red but not bright, with a piece of low-pass filtering glass over it. You can't get rapid modulation with tungsten, of course, but a few Hz is possible. Years ago IR leds on baseball caps were posited for defeating certain (eg ATM) cameras. Don't know if they worked.
