I was very fortunate this Christmas, more so than I ever could have imagined, and I managed to collect a fine assortment of awesome tools. Check it out!

This goes with the Techie Toolkit part, didn't actually get it for Christmas. Flexible Keyboard, great for traveling:

Again, something I had collected previously, but still great for the toolkit. Retractable cable set with mini mouse:

One of the first gifts, a power supply tester from Xoxide. So far has worked beautifully on five or so PSUs.

Screw kit from Xoxide, always incredibly handy.

The Ultra kit from Xoxide, and it has already proven useful on every day since Christmas. Lots of bits with a ratcheting bit driver, crimper, soldering iron, hex set, anti static wrist band, and much more!

A 90 or so piece bit set, hooray modding!

A small, 12V drill, perfect for modding purposes:

The flexi shaft and multimax 3/4" cutting tool for my Dremel:

160 piece Dremel accessory kit, including the EZ lock mandrel:

I don't care how geeky I look wearing this, but this LED Headlight is incredible. It has both a low light/red light setting, and a two LED white setting:

Unrelated to the toolkit, unless you ride a motorcycle to your jobs. Firstgear Fargo gloves with a faceplate wiper on the left index finger:

And, for those times your two billable hour job gets resolved in 10 minutes, Georgia Techopoly to pass the time:

Feel free to share anything cool you got this Christmas, or anything you suggest I add to my techie toolkit.

Great score! And don't be embarrassed, I wear one of those head-lamps with pride...even when I don't need it. ;)

Basically what I said when I saw the feature. I haven't tested it out yet, but it seems like it will do the job.

If anyone is interested in getting any of my other gear, check out my Fire sale in the For Sale forum here: http://www.thebestcasescenario.com/forum/showthread.php?t=21742

I have been using gloves like this for many years. Invaluable where I live since we get mist and fog all the time. My last pair of gloves did not have this feature and I never knew how much I used it until then.

Great score!
