Ever wonder how Joe travels around with all his speedlight gear? Check it out:

One thing you'll undoubtedly notice (and it isn't mentioned in the article surprisingly) is all that bright blue tape on everything. Hell, even his Sharpie markers have blue tape.
If you ever go to a photo shoot where there's multiple photographers, you'll want to do something like this. The blue tape is Joe's way of branding his gear so that it's easily identifiable. Think of it as a great big "PROPERTY OF JOE MCNALLY" sign on all this stuff.
I never used to do this until I joined a photo group. We'd be at a shoot and everyone there has PocketWizards. Which one is yours? Oh...mine has a little nick near the power switch. Wait...so does yours? Uhh....I think this one is mine?
Electrical tape is available in a variety of colors, even camo, and is what most people use to mark their gear. You can even get fancy and use two colors if you want. I use green tape on my stuff.
