Testing kit add ons for a newbie tester

[Toneyz]

A comfortable van seat for when you are making up filling in the paperwork
A crystal ball for when you get to the D.B and find it not marked up.
Earplugs for the number of times you will get asked "when is the power going on"

Thanks everyone some great help.
Not sure my boss realises how much all this is going to cost him.

I get by with an R2 adapter, shorting links, fistful of wagos, lockout kit, wander lead, and a "bang plug"

I also carry other bits that don't get as much use such as a EL clamp meter.
Never seen the point in the lightmate kits personally.

by bang plug, do you mean like mine? with a L-E link inside for R1+R2 and the alternative Zs test as in hi current bypassing RCD?

Yep, but I only really use mine for identifying circuits through continuity.
