WHAT TO EXPECT FOR THE WEEK OF APRIL 21

Throughout the week of April 21 (Spring break), I will PROBABLY be home in Clinton Township, NJ, due to going to KEAN Uni on Tuesday, April 23rd for an important event anyway. Here are the stats based on how the Spring break trip may play out:

So far, the highest chances are that we are staying in NJ and not going outside of NJ. However, things may change in the next journal post.

Journal posting schedule (as of April 17 at 7:00 PM):

Journal posting and YouTube premieres happen once every hour and 45 minutes in the following table below:

MORNING PERIOD MORNING TIME EVENING TIME
PERIOD 1 3:15 AM 1:45 PM
PERIOD 2 5:00 AM 3:30 PM
PERIOD 3 6:45 AM 5:15 PM
PERIOD 4 8:30 AM 7:00 PM
PERIOD 5 10:15 AM 8:45 PM
PERIOD 6 12:00 PM 10:30 PM

What to expect for lifts

The kinds of lifts I film over spring recess will not be known until June 13.

New Jersey

If I am staying in NJ, I am most likely going to drive to wherever the rest of the fam is going (following their car) so that I can easily drive to the other buildings to film other lifts. Possible cities I could be going to during the Spring break (if we’re staying in New Jersey), include:

  • Secaucus
  • Lyndhurst Township
  • Elizabeth
  • Union Township (where KEAN University is)
  • Somerville
  • Bridgewater Township
  • Clinton Township
  • Mt. Laurel Township
  • Atlantic City
  • Cape May / Ocean City

Pennsylvania

We may most likely be going to either Scranton, Pittsburgh, Lancaster or Philadelphia if we go to Pennsylvania.

Connecticut

We may most likely be going to Hartford and Cromwell if we go to Connecticut, and the lifts will most likely be OTIS.

Florida

We may most likely be going to the Fort Lauderdale area, or the Miami Tail area where Key West is if we go to Florida.

California

We will most likely be going within the LA area if we go to California.

Outside the U.S.

While unlikely, if we are to go outside the U.S., we will most likely either go to Niagara Falls, Toronto, Jerusalem or Tel Aviv.

When will the lifts be premiered?

As soon as I am done working on the final pieces (which must be scheduled by April 28), I will upload and schedule a premiere for them on YouTube on the day that I get my final report card, which may not be on June 13. Regardless, they will be up on my channel BEFORE JULY 1ST AT 5:00 AM! You will be notified via journal post no sooner than 1 hour & 45 minutes before the videos are premiered. The journal post will tell you to turn on your reminders! The reason I am waiting until I get my final report card is to make sure that my diploma cannot be taken away (that’s if I even GET my diploma to begin with, which is THE LAST THING I EXPECT) should I get a lower score in one or more of my classes due to final exams and/or tests and projects that weren’t entered into ASPEN before the last day of the academic year which is June 12. The summer lift filming schedule & the decision for my series of 3 graduation trips will be made ONLY AFTER I get my 4th marking period report card, and that’s only if my worst grade is a D.

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...

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...

Paramus Lift Galore: June 2022

Written on behalf of the Rising Salamander Academy Lift Galore Date: June 17 Lift Galore Time: 5:00 PM EST It's been a long time since I've last filmed lifts in person, a whole whopping half a year to be exact. 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...
