I have a lousy right shoulder, so the bag\u2019s buckle strap is perfect for me. It has plenty of room and the reflective material on the outside means I won\u2019t get run down quite so easily at night.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s inside the bag<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roku.com\/products\/streaming-stick\" target=\"_blank\">Roku<\/a> ($49)<\/strong><br \/>\nI know we\u2019re all locked in at home right now, but in case I\u2019m stranded somewhere without good streaming, I always bring my dedicated travel Roku. They\u2019re great at grandma\u2019s house or hotels. I\u2019m not saying that you should hack hotel TVs, but I am saying that hotel TVs have been hacked.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/B07MY44VNM\/whatsinmybag-20\" target=\"_blank\">5TB Seagate Portable Drive <\/a>($106)<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Seagate will hold both my video and music libraries. Just plug it into any USB port and you\u2019re ready to go. The unit is rugged, too. I\u2019ve taken drives all over the world without any problems.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ultimateears.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM<\/a> ($250) and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/B0756CYWWD\/whatsinmybag-20\" target=\"_blank\">Bose QuietComfort Headphones<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nIf I\u2019m stuck somewhere playing video or music from my laptop, I still want good sound. The Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM gives you a lot of power in a small package. If I\u2019m somewhere I need to be quiet, I switch to my Bose QuietComfort 35 Bluetooth headphones.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/B075ZVKXW5\/whatsinmybag-20\" target=\"_blank\">Pocket Travelers notebook<\/a> ($12)<\/strong><br \/>\nI write on the computer so much that sometimes it\u2019s a pleasure to go back to pen and paper. Besides, on planes and trains, it\u2019s often hard to deal with even a small laptop. The notebook is thick leather, so it can take a lot of abuse. I use it with grid notebooks.<\/p>\n<div class='ctx-module-container ctx_default_placement ctx-clearfix'><\/div><span class=\"ctx-article-root\"><!-- --><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What&#8217;s in my bag? issue #45<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13684,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false},"categories":[2303],"tags":[1553],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35748"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13684"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=35748"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35748\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":35750,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35748\/revisions\/35750"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35748"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=35748"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=35748"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
