Do you have one of a thing and just always have it handy or get many and put them in useful places? Think sunscreen or multi tools.

I have a light and knife as EDC on my key ring. I also usually carry a Skeletool, as well. My hiking day packs are set up with headlamps and other basic essentials.
Lanterns and basic tools are organized and located where I can find them quickly (a real chore for me because I am basically disorganized - just ask Mrs. Hikermor....

For gear I regularly use, I usually have two of each. One is easily accessible such as a pocket or my EDC bag and one in my bedroom.

For gears, I prefer many. The engine wraps out around 30mph in 1st. I have to have at least three gears: 1, 2, and D. For that reason, I have yet to drive a Ford Model T, which has a two-speed transmission. I will make an exception for steam and electric cars, which only have one speed. Jeanette Isabelle
