Miscellaneous Equipment
Miscellaneous equipment should include:
- flashlights (always bring a couple). It's really handy to invest a couple of bucks to get a headlamp, which gives you both hands free for equipment
- lots of extra batteries, for every piece of equipment that uses batteries. Most investigators find out very quickly that investing a little bit in rechargeable batteries and a quickcharger is a very wise move
- a small toolkit
- a watch
- a notebook and a pen or pencils
- a pair of small two-way radios
- duct tape, electrical tape
- a small first aid kit
- something to drink and snack on
- a rainjacket
- lots of film if you're using 35 mm
- extra video cassettes for the videocams
- extra audio cassettes
- extension cords
- cell phone
- a few ziplock bags
