DECEMBER 2018: LIFT FILMING PLANS

In December 2018, I do not have much of any plans to film lifts outside of Clinton/Bridgewater Townships. However, because December 26 will be my 3 year anniversary since I started filming lifts, I will choose to film a lift locally in Clinton Township. 

As for December 15, I was originally supposed to go to Secaucus AND Elizabeth. I am still fishy on going to these two cities/towns after what went down in Atlantic City this past August, but I will be more motivated to go to Secaucus & / or Elizabeth specifically for my 3-year anniversary. I will go only to film a COUPLE LIFTS to premiere on December 26. Plus, I have my driving permit, so I will more than likely be driving. If I go to Secaucus, I definitely want to film the Embassy Suites lifts & the Residence Inn which has OTIS Gen2 lifts at least. As for Elizabeth, I hope to film the 7 story Impulse hydro & / or the 8-story KONE HORNRTDISC lifts.

As for Christmas break, I highly doubt we’re going to Hartford (at this point, I could care much less about going anyway). However, if I do go to Hartford, I want to film at least TWO LIFTS to premiere for 12.26.2018 at 11:00 AM & 11:00 PM. 

I am signing off & will be back on NEXT Friday at 5:15 PM to discuss my lift filming plans for February 2019.

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...

I'm excited to be back, but not for long, since I have to finish up my time at Kean University & focus on graduating on time. But for the mean time, let's enjoy our summer recess, film the best lifts we can film & make the most of it! Westinghouse Lift Where: Macy's, Garden State Plaza Time Filmed: 10:10 AM (June 10) Grade: B+ Speed to Height Ratio: 8.1:1 (Fast) Landings Served: 3 The first lift of this lift galore is a 1950's Westinghouse lift which was later modernised by a generic company between the 1980's & early 2000's with EPCO Flushline fixtures on the outside, EPCO Circleline fixtures on the inside. This lift has a speed to height ratio of 8.1:1 which makes it fast for the application & number of landings. This lift is loc...
