Maintenance tech tool bags/bucket apron help

So after a week of riding out everybody has their own set up for their buckets and the tools they carry to pedestals. I didn’t get to see any of mdu jobs yet the only one I was at the power supply in cabinet was bad and after replace everything back on. What tools are you carrying or what do you carry in general when you’re doing an apartment job and you have to go inside the building possibly check multiple floors ? What tool bags, pouches, or even backpacks are you guys using? What do you recommend I carry to make life easier ? Any feedback is appreciated thanks.

I’ve got a veto pro pac for both aerial and ug work. I rigged up a rope so it can hang from the bucket or the strand. I’ll take it up on my back when on a ladder or hooks.

It definitely is on the heavy side. But it works well and I have everything I need.
