Because I beat the crap out of everything I own, I prefer knives with disposable blades. I use this.
I'm using Amazon links as requested, but if you have a local big box tool stop you can get the store brand of most all these items for the same price or less. I know from personal experience, that from the tools I've listed all but two of the items are cheaper in store than on Amazon.
Everyone needs a knife! (~$7 home depot)
Razor blade
Where are you going to keep everything? (~$10 home depot)
Utility Sack
You'll need a good all around screw driver. (~$8 home depot)
6-in-1 Reversible Screwdriver
Need some basic general maintenance pliers? (~$20 home depot)
Pliers Set
Ratcheting screwdriver for those repetitive screw jobs. (~$20 sears)
Ratcheting Screwdriver
Where the hell did I put that T6?
Magnetic Precision Screwdriver Set
Where did that damn screw go?
Flashlight
Extra stuff!
I recommend the ball end ones specifically if you don't have a good angle on what your trying to get at (cough towel bar cough cough).
Long Arm Ball End Hex Key Wrench Set
For those damn pesky wires and that damn lack of a third hand.
Helping hands
When duck tape and gum wont cut it.
Beginners soldering iron kit
I have used all of these specific items extensively besides the ball end hex keys, and that specific helping hands.

Husky Sure-Grip Folding Lock Back Utility Knife
I just randomly stumbled across this...
For lighting, I use these for like 90% of the work. The other 10% is for special occasions that rarely come about, but if you're in LX then it's a solid investment:
The other 10% is just unique situations. You don't need a cable tester if you have a multimeter, you can invest in that later if you really use it that much. It does make things quicker though. Whomever you're working for should provide gaff, sharpies, notepad. You can invest later if you find you need it a lot.
If you're up in the air a lot and tired of using phone cable or tripping on tieline for your wrench lanyard, then use a pistol lanyard; it's nice and rated and keeps out of the way. Scaff wrench? maybe if you're working with truss a lot, even then you're using it 10% of the time and you need a mallet to go with it. I'd also recommend steeltoed boots, for when idiots drop scaff wrenches on your foot. RedWing will last you forever and they have warranties. I like military/ tactical ones though, 'cause they're built for the beating and you can find breathable ones easily.
Alright I'm done. I don't even know how I got here....
> EDIT: I also live in southern California if anyone would like to give me some good stores I could probably browse around.
