I'm doing a refresh on my 'get home' bag. The theory here isn't that I'm going out camping for days, or living off grid, or anything so dramatic. It's that I'm stuck away from home close enough that I can walk it in a day or two. I'm assuming that I'm dressed for work, so wearing clothing inappropriate to anything outside of a meeting room and will only have useless tools beyond my EDC. Grid down? Hey, I have a display port to HDMI adapter! No water? Hey, I have a USB slide advancer!
