Contents of my “gadget bag”, that I have in my backpack/messenger bag at all times
This little gadget bag has saved my, and my clients, and friends, arses many many times. I thought I would share the contents, despite the g33k factor associated. Enjoy, I do! This little baggie gets stuffed into my backpack/bag almost everywhere I go, except of course when I am not “on-duty”. There would be a compass in there too, but well, my favourite watch has one, and well — @indigoprime once taught me many years ago how to navigate via the sun (yes i still remember!) using one’s watch-hands so I am good to go there.
I also like to carry a Penrith Survival tin when I am going out of the city.
The pics:
The contents:
- 1x 4″ USB cable + multiple-sized USB connectors (goldxproducts.com)
- 1x Victorinox SwissCard Lite credit-card sized multi-tool thingy (amazing device, saved my arse MANY times)
- 2x extra-strong shoelaces (black)
- 1x bunch twisty-ties that I hijacked from a sack of garbage bags
- 1x teeny-tiny post-it notes pad (1.5″ x 1″)
- 2x 2GB Sandisk miniSD card
- 1x 3′ CAT-5 cable
- 1x Logitech 4-port mini USB hub
- 1x VGA-DVI converter
- 1x VGA-miniDVI converter
- 3x safety pins
- 1x Tide “To-Go” stain remover stick
- 1x Sandisk 2GB Cruzer USB thumbstick
- 4x (assorted size) watchmaker/opticians screwdrivers
- 1x pen
- 1x mechanical pencil
- 1x rolled-up bunch of velcro cable ties
- 1x ciggie lighter
- 1x 21 LED miniflashlight
- 1x “spare” RSA SecurID remote access token
- small collection of spare iPod headphone “caps” in little baggie thing
- 4x $5 bills (just in case)
Thats it. The gadget bag is light enough to not bother me, small enough to stash away (about the size of a medium-to-large-sized trade paperback), and useful enough to miss when I don’t have it.
Anyone got any suggestions for must-have items that I’m missing?
Cheers!
