Start with the actual inventory

Lay out the selected daily instruments, small tools and report equipment before buying a bag. A filled pocket count is not a useful target.

Protect instruments deliberately

Keep camera screens, sensor heads and leads protected from loose metal tools and debris. Confirm padded cases and compartment dimensions.

Check loaded carry and access

Inspectors repeatedly move between rooms and properties. Choose organized access and manageable loaded weight, including the report device and charging gear.
