What to expect in Atlantic City

In Atlantic City, my hopes are to film THREE GOOD LIFTS at the Tropicana hotel AT MINIMUM! This means I will hopefully revisit the Montgomery lift in the casino, the Haughton / Schindler lifts in the north tower & the KONE / Montgomery lifts in the west tower. Do not expect any lift videos from any other hotels besides the Tropicana hotel. Any other lifts I get the opportunity to film in Atlantic City will be bonus surprise lift videos. There may be a chance that I could walk over to some of the other lower-rising buildings along the boardwalk at anytime during my trip to Atlantic City to film some interesting hydraulic or other MRL traction lifts. I am just excited for the Tropicana lifts.

Additionally, other lift videos from Clinton Township will be up as opening lift videos for the big lift galore of the summer, which is going up on my YouTube Channel on August 12, at 8:45 AM. I will have no more plans to film lifts for the rest of the summer until AFTER September 8. After Atlantic City, I will begin the research project for my graduation trip & start discussing plans to film other lifts in Secaucus, Elizabeth, Clinton Township & Morristown. The Clinton Township lift videos are going up on my YouTube Channel the night BEFORE we go to Atlantic City.

Other than that, please do not hesitate to email me with questions or concerns at prosperouspenguins@gmail.com.

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...
