Tools.. Well in addition to the normal "every day" tools, (Knifes, cutters and pliars and screwdrivers)

Test lamps, both 12 and 120 volt,, again, nature of me is to have multiple and different sizes.
Electrical tape, sealant and connectors and in some cases special tools for dealign with the connectors (This last is optional but necessary in my life).

Journeyman CET and amateur extra class myself (W5DWH). I like you carry more electronics tools than the average person. I carry a fully loaded Xcelite tool case, a multimeter, amp probe, 12V test lamp, spare fuses, wire, crimp connectors, wire nuts, butane soldering iron, and heat shrink tubing.
