In my line of work I do CCTV, IP based cameras, networking as well as computer repairs.

 

I have a home built tool box. Its heavy as heck, but it has "wagon wheels" and can easily be loaded and locked into my Ford Transport thanks to the ramp.

This is what I keep on me at all times. The tool box cost me $500 to build and equip with tools.

 

A IR thermometer with laser

A laser range finder

Assorted precision screwdrivers

Assorted hex and torque, keys and multitools

Assorted hex, torque, fillips, flats, square and various anti-theft bits.

Battery operated 7" LCD with adapters, charger and a extra battery.

Electrical Tape of assorted colors, lots and lots of it! (I use yellow for video, red/black for positive/negative, orange for Cat5/Cat5e, Green for Cat6/Cat6a and blue for POE.)

Brother label maker and a extra cartridge.

Assorted screws, bolts, nuts and anchors.

Assorted replacement camera lenses.

Black and Decker 12v cordless drill, an extra battery and a firestorm 1 hour charger.
