Flight case/rollaboard essentials

[QUOTE=StrangeBrew;2033299]I get that this thread has serious potential to go off the fairway into a bunker, but trying to keep the discussion to practical items, what are some key items to have in your flight case (if you still use one) and/or rollaboard that wouldn't ordinarily come to mind for someone new to the regional game? Medications (FAA-approved, of course) for acute maladies, chargers/batteries, gym clothes for hotel gyms, etc.??

5 socks (3 dress 2 casual)
Workout/running shorts and shirt (long sleeve in winter)
Running shoes
Jeans or shorts as per season
T-shirt
No-wrinkle dress shirt for commuting.
One work shirt

One thing I've found handy is a small power strip. Amazing how many hotels only have one outlet handy when you have 3 things to plug in.
