I need to start identifying which ps connects to which charger, and what not. What are your experiences and recommendations.

Thanks!

I use a Dymo Rhino Pro 5000 and it is great for a variety of things we do at work. Possibly a cheaper version of the Dymo label maker might be the go for standard work.

I've got a Brother PT-65 which meets all my labeling needs. Easy to use and easy to get refills at Office Max.

...2nd the Metallic Sharpie, best on dark surfaces though..also possibly even more durable are oil-based weatherproof "paint pens"-- I get mine from Abbeon Cal; but you have to order 15 for $44. I can tell you from experience these things last for ever until you use them up -- I have had a few sitting around for over 5 years and they're still good!

I use the little Brother P-Touch. It works well as longa s you clean the surface before applying it. I like the various colors, including clear backgrounds and various metalic colors. The gold lettering on black looks really good on a black flashlight.

In a few cases, I've used a drop of super glue to make the hard to stick label permanent.
