How do you identify and label your tech accessories?
For me, it’s through the use of custom designed sticker labels. I created my stickers in Photoshop and used a print-to-order company to print a spool of them. I use my custom sticker labels on just about every tech gadget I carry: smartphone cases, external storage devices (hard drives, SSDs, etc.) and portable accessories, such as USB chargers.
My sticker labels were designed intentionally. Each label measures approximately 2” wide by 3/4” tall. The labels are orange and red and include my last name, with blank lines reserved for Name and Capacity. For convenience, the stickers can be written on with a Sharpie marker. This makes it easy to annotate information, like a storage device’s volume name and storage capacity.
Since I travel back and forth between work and home, having labels on my devices allows me to quickly identify them. The stickers were designed to stand out visually, making it less likely that I’ll forget my devices when I pack up and go.
I also use my sticker labels for any gadget that comes with a large power brick. I never have to guess which power brick goes with which device.
