Atlantic City December 23rd update

During the weekend of February 3rd, so far, we are supposed to be heading down to Atlantic City to stay at the Borgata Hotel.

At the chart above, you see the current statistics above, which shows a curvy likelihood of us going to Atlantic City. We see this rise in likelihood between January 8 & January 15, but then we see a 9% drop in likelihood between January 21 & January 28. While this isn't necessarily alarming, it does open up some warnings & causes for concern.

What happens if I end up NOT GOING?

If the same thing for LA happens this time, I will try to make it up by going to Secaucus to get perfect retakes of lifts I have already filmed for the second, third or fourth time, or possibly going to ONLY THE GOOD LIFTS in New York City (Monitor buttons are not in the picture).

Until then, get excited for tonight because there is a ONE HUNDRED PERCENT chance that I DEFINITELY WILL be going to Cromwell & hopefully I will be able to get mass footage of both lifts in the hotel (Courtyard by Marriott Hartford Cromwell).

Why Schindler & KONE make the best traction lifts

Over the past 2 & a half years of filming lifts at different buildings all over the Eastern Seaboard, I have managed to film a handful of OTIS, Schindler, ThyssenKrupp & KONE traction lifts. Here is my assumption: Schindler & KONE make the best traction & MRL traction lifts of any of the 4 major lift brands. Of course, this could be based on personal bias, but it doesn’t go without knowledge that Schindler lifts, are in fact, more efficient time-based than let’s say, ThyssenKrupp lifts. Here are some things that I really love about Schindler & KONE traction lifts. Their fast acceleration / leveling It is no surprise that Schindler & KONE have some of the fastest average accelerating rates of any major lift brand. This is because Schindler & KONE have a perfect reference-tackle system, which is almost unbeatable by standards of other lift brands. One thing I have noticed when riding Schindler lifts is even at low speeds (200-400 FPM), you head feels like...

THE OTIS IN ANAHEIM

Before writing this report, let me quickly give you some background on the lifts and escalators that I have seen during my time at DisneyLand in Anaheim, California with my family. Brief Overview While I was at DisneyLand in Anaheim, I have encountered four sets of very tall MontgomeryKONE escalators, a set of two very fast MontgomeryKONE traction units (partially outdoor as the first landing had a rear door that opened on the outside of the building), this OTIS hydro here that I managed to ride and film & another OTIS hydro that I didn’t get to ride nor film. These lifts, regardless, were still very awesome lifts, but for now, I will be going into a description of this amazing lift. What made this lift so amazing? This particular lift is so amazing because it’s a full-blown commercial hydraulic lift installed fully outdoors , which is rather unusual for an outdoor lift. This alone made it amazing. Upon first glance, it looks like a pretty standard lift that you would typical...
