Rob Lewis Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 Im looking for opinions on what kind of asset tags are working for folks on their gear. Im on my second set and neither have been very durable. I'd be putting them on my comteks, mixers, transmitters, receivers, and so on. Looking for something durable that the print won't wear off. I would also like something fairly small. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dominiquegreffard Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 I second this. I ve been labelling my gear with stickers that get erased too fast. I want something durable that i could just order easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Toline Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 Print your own with a "P-Touch" label maker? Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Waelder Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 Maverick Label is a good source for semi-permanent equipment labels. They make vinyl labels that are very resistant to rub-off and have a product called "ID My Stuff" that batches an assortment of sizes and shapes onto a single sheet. The cost is $9.95 for a single sheet, a bit less in multiples. They also make other label products and can provide bar coding, etc. A link their home page: http://www.mavericklabel.com/ And, specifically, the ID My Stuff product: http://www.mavericklabel.com/id-my-stuff.html David A picture of the ID My Stuff product: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Miramontes Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 There were plenty of suggestions on this you may want to consider. I just ordered the set David recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Hirtenstein Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 I've been using IDmyStuff for half a year now thanks to David. Very durable, no print missing and they're all still stuck on. Plus it was only $12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toy Robot Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 I ordered the set David recommended from Maverick Label many months ago and I'm very happy that I did. The adhesive is very strong, and they're all going strong months later. Word to the wise though; buy in bulk. Those stickers go fast with all our gear!

Matt Martin Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Another vote for the IDmyStuff labels and yes buy more than you think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Movies by Matt Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 First post. Wanted to share my amateur up to date research. Hoping I can inspire some senator sarcasm...or maybe I'm not worthy yet. Fingers crossed. The goal is to track gear and not lose anything. I want to use an iPhone for scanning and ultimately end up in Quickbooks for billing. So I'm going with maverick labels, the links above are outdated so here's a new one: http://www.mavericklabel.com/products/asset-tags.html Then seeking an iPhone app and in my research find this to be the best option, if only because they keep supporting the program and they have a bunch of simple tutorials on YouTube: http://inventoryscanner.de/ After scanning I'll export a file (csv) to excel (to do this requires a subscription, but only costs $15.99 per year) and then export from excel into Quickbooks. Hope this helps some people out. Great forum to read and learn from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
