Lightbulb Inspector Starter Kit

I remembered a few months ago I read about someone asking if there are or if someone could put together a starter kit, so I did alittle research and found this in the product menu of a home inspection school. So if you havent found on and noone's made one here a little something..

They have other things too, gas detectors, ladders, but one question what is a AWL and a Ultra Stinger?

yes Adam, I agree with Troy you can do better than that kit. Shopping around you could probably get all that for less, just a matter of convenience I guess. I'll try to get something together for you also, have to get out of here til tonight.

Darn it Nick! I just purchased another Ultra Stinger!

I knew I should have consulted the board first.
