COVID Alert: January 9 & Continuation of Virtual Lift Filming

Due to the Omicron variant, coupled with a substantial increase in COVID transmission throughout the United States, all lift filming events will continue to take place virtually using Bandicam & Skyscrapersim until further notice. Additionally, the Stamford & NYC trips in January & February 2022 have been replaced with virtual lift filming days.

These safety precautions are being taken despite me being triple vaccinated & dual-masked.

The further notice policy is still in effect:
  • 14-day average of 49,999 cases or fewer
  • 21-day average of 74,999 cases or fewer
  • 28-day average of 99,999 cases or fewer
Throughout the United States.

The further notice policy must apply for in-person lift filming to take place. Should the daily cases rise above 100,000 at any point in time for the 28-day average, the further notice policy will be reapplied & will not be switched back for 28 days.

Changes since the January 2 COVID Alert:

Should the Further Notice Policy not be met by the week of July 31, I will have a virtual alternative to the Atlantic City trip planned for the week of August 7. The Atlantic City trip is tentatively scheduled for August 6-9. Should the 28-day average be 100,000 cases or more by July 31, I will have four days of virtual lift galores planned in place of Atlantic City, one for each day.

Found the source of the problems with my PC

I am proud to finally tell y’all that I believe I have found a definite source of the problems I have been experiencing with my Windows PC over the past few days. It was because of a faulty Windows 10 preview update which was affecting the Windows 10 Recovery Environment. Luckily, I have found a trustworthy program (free of malware) which I could use to debug errors in my PC at any time, minor or major. Luckily,  none of the problems I am experiencing with my PC right now are  anywhere close to what’s happened when I tried to fix windows PC’s in the past. I am still taking  every precaution possible to further decrease the chance of my Windows PC breaking down or crashing. As a matter of fact, my PC almost crashed  this morning , but luckily, I was able to hard-restart the PC to get it working again by holding the power button down for 15-20 seconds. Luckily,  none of the problems I am experiencing with my PC right now are  anywhere close to what’s h...

LIFT FILMING AGENDA UPDATE 1.25.2019 & WILL CHICAGO BE CROWNED THE NEW KING?

Chicago holds a high possibility of being crowned first place . What if I told you that Chicago has some rare and exotic lifts that you probably won’t find in many other places in the U.S.? That is an existence a lift filmer will be delighted with when they go to the city of Chicago. My four figures of reference were: WI Sirens and Elevators Elevators of Lake County CHI Elevators Windy City Elevators Because I have found so many outstanding Montgomery, Dover, SchindlerHaughton, Westinghouse and KONE lifts throughout the city of Chicago, it wouldn’t be sensible for me to write it all under one big blog post, because it would be a big waste of time for me to go into big, elaborate detail on what made each lift stand out. What I found on YouTube in terms of Chicago lifts Mitsubishi and Fujitec These lift filmers have walked around the city of Chicago filming some super nice lifts, and in the process of watching YouTube videos over the past few months, I have found that Ch...

QUICK RUNDOWN OF THE NORMAL BEHAVIOR OF A 700A

Tallest 700A’s I have been on Arguably, at 20 stories, these have been the tallest Schindler 700A’s I have EVER been on, and the first I’ve been on in a hotel. However, I have noticed some interesting characteristics of the Schindler 700A in mid to high rise applications. Epic lifts indeed To start off, these lifts had absolutely incredible acceleration, deceleration and leveling. They take off like rockets and travel at a mindblowing speed of 120 meters per minute, despite serving a travel distance of 55-60 meters. The deceleration is similar to the Schindler 700A’s at the Nordstrom store at the Mall at Short Hills, as it smoothly phases into its full deceleration mode. In terms of character, these lifts do tend to make a little bit of noise and shake on the way up and down the tower. Car 3 makes a very loud screeching noise as it accelerates towards level 17 going down, which I find to make the ride even more fun. These lifts were installed in 1993, which gives them even more 199...
