I carry a powerbank and various USB C adapters so if someone’s device dies I can help them out. It is a lot cheaper and smaller than carrying around seven different cables.

On top of that I carry Tylenol and bandages.

I used to carry a full first aid bag but kept forgetting to restock on supplies.

    I guess the most unusual of the every day items is a headlamp. Much handier than a flashlight in a lot of situations. If you ever have to change a tire or diagnose a car engine in pitch black it helps to have light always exactly where you’re looking.

      I carry around a cheap Ali Express one that has a magnet base. Great for vehicle troubles I’ve found

      I like my reg surefire, but I have a headband with a flashlight loop. It is perfect for my needs, which is mostly handheld to search bags and such, but gives a near zero space headlamp as well.
