One of the things I love about my job is the chance to get into the field. When I was just pocket-sized, our group motto was “Be prepared . . . for (almost) anything.”
I always carry these things in my toolbox:
- Voltmeter
- Screwdrivers
- Flat-blade (pn 1113)
- Phillips-head (pn 6290)
- Small flat-blade (pn 8125)
- Wire cutter/stripper
- Crescent wrench
- Pliers
- Pad and pen
- Campbell support phone number
- Laptop, fully charged, with software
and drivers installed
For some sites I also carry:
- CR1000KD
- Formatted CompactFlash cards
- SC115 CS I/O-to-USB drive
- SC12 two-peripheral connector cable
- SC32B optically isolated RS-232 interface
