What do you carry TWO of when traveling?

Sign. It's always something. My black tank sensor is showing 100% full although empty. It tends to do that on travel days and will usually go down as the gray tank goes up. Not usually a problem except lately since I've been staying at Harvest Hosts where I don't have access to city water, so I can't just take the fuse out and flush away. Today I'm at a KOA in Des Moines, IA and NOTE TO SELF => carry an EXTRA WATER PRESSURE REGULATOR. Lately, I've been staying at places with lower water pressure so I tightened my Watts Adjustable Regulator way down. Well now I'm at a CG that is blasting 80 psi and I can't loosen it to let up the flow. So now I have access to city water, but too powerful and I have the happy red light indicating that my empty black tank is full and yeah I'm just risking it. I pray I don't blow out my pipes.

So, I'll be buying a second adjustable regulator. I do carry extra fuel filters and belts, but today's little problem got me thinking...what ELSE should I be carrying TWO of? What extras do ya'll carry in your rig?

I have a fifth wheel and ever since I broke a king pin lube plate in Yellowstone NP I carry an extra. We had to drive into West Yellowstone MT to buy another one and paid 3 times what they should cost.

Oh goodness, this is so simple. Put your mouth around the city water spigot and turn the water on full. If it puffs both cheeks out that's 80psi. Turn down until only one cheek puffs out, that's 40psi. Best if verified on video, posted for verification.
