Lift filming plans for NJ Teacher’s Convention Weekend & until 12.15.18

In terms of lift filming, I do not have much of anything planned for the week of November 4 through 10. In fact, I have ZERO pre-made plans to film lifts at any point between now & December 15 ANYWHERE outside of a 2-mile margin of Route 31 or I-78 in Clinton Township. However, here are some possible things that may happen over NJ Teacher’s Convention weekend:

  • Possible lift filming in Wayne Township, NJ if I visit William Paterson University for the instant decision event
  • Possible lift filming in Jersey City, NJ on Saturday or Sunday (inside the Secaucus/Hartford Band)
  • Possible lift filming in NYC (Left to be determined)

The moral of the story is, November 8 through 11 are my only possible lift filming days for the beginning of November. The end of November is still yet to be determined. Even then, because I have used the bad in the past major trip to Atlantic City as a LEARNING TOOL, I will only be filming lifts that I encounter & have the time to film, unless it is a boring running lift which has no run character in it (for example, most MCE’s & most TK’s).

I will resume my normal, post A.C. lift filming itinerary once my cluttered weekend schedules get less cluttered & my academic worries are low.

I will be back on Wednesday, November 7 & Thursday, November 8 at 5:15 PM & 8:45 AM to discuss my temporary 1 & a half month “semi-break” from YouTube beginning May 1st 2019.

Until then, BYE Y’ALL!

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...

A QUICK ANALYSIS OF EACH OF THE LIFTS AT BRIDGEWATER MALL IN BRIDGEWATER TOWNSHIP

I do not have much time to elaborate on every single detail of the lifts at the Bridgewater Mall in Bridgewater Township, so I will try to narrow down my analyses as quick as possible. I have no time to include pictures as visuals either, so you’ll just have to refer to the attached YouTube video below. The Mall itself Bridgewater Commons Mall is a mall from the early 1980’s that has gone through quite a few renovations and expansions over the years. Inside the mall, the original anchors are Macy’s and Bloomingdales, which both have Westinghouse lifts, still fully original to the 1980’s construction project. The carpark was added in during the 1990’s and features the first lift I filmed which was the Dover glass hydraulic. Inside the mall, there is a food court on the third floor with three sets of escalators throughout the main part of the mall, with three more sets inside the multi-level stores (Bloomingdales, Macy’s, and Lord & Taylor). The majority of the escalators are Schin...
