Lift filming plans for the summer

I apologize for my hiatus from both in-person & virtual lift filming. My schedule was a lot busier & more rigorous as I was anticipating & I had to reprioritize my time towards studying to keep up with my grades. However, my semester & the fiasco is done & I am back.

Recap since the hiatus

During my hiatus, I turned 21 & went to Atlantic City during the weekend of February 12, where I filmed the fastest set of Schindler 700A lifts you could find in NJ. Video premiered on May 13 at 11:00 AM.

Additionally, I had wisdom tooth removal surgery on May 13 at 10:30 AM, which rendered me out of commission for the following 3 weeks as I've been back & forth to & from the dentist since for checkups & cleanings.

In January, I have replaced my Honda CR-V with a 2020 Acura MDX, which is my third dream vehicle behind the Toyota 4Runner & Lexus GX. For more information, private message me on Discord.

However, I'm back now.

Minor rebranding campaign

I have decided to change my channel slug from Toyotis4Runner4437Gen2 to Lahto, shorthand for Lexus + Acura + Honda + Toyota + OTIS, since I'm picking up a passion for cars as well as lifts & it being that my 8 dream vehicles are the Lexus GX, Toyota 4Runner, Toyota Sequoia, Acura MDX, Honda Passport, Honda Pilot, Lexus RX & Toyota Highlander.

Plans for this Friday

The plan is to film each of the lifts at Westfield Garden State Plaza that I did not get to film during the 2021 lift galore. After that, the plan is to film the KONE lifts at 747 Jersey 17 N in Paramus before heading to the lift filming studio in Scotch Plains to edit & create the premiere. The premiere is scheduled for June 12 at 2:00 PM.

What I've filmed since

Since the last virtual lift video that went up on January 14, I have filmed in-person the following lifts:
  • February 12 (Sheraton Atlantic City) - Premiere May 13 at 11:00 AM
  • April 28 (Green Lane Building - Kean University) - Premiere May 13 at 2:00 PM

Agenda this summer

Due to the Beno Building Creator being taken down indefinitely, there are no longer plans to film lifts virtually until further notice. Therefore, the lift filming plans this summer are tentative to the following:
  • June 10: Westfield Garden State Plaza & 747 NJ Route 17 North [COMPLETED]
  • July 8: Secaucus, NJ
  • July 15: Random office buildings throughout Freehold Township, NJ
  • August 6-9: Either one of the following:
    • Atlantic City (Ocean Resort, Harrah's Resort, Bally's Resort, Resorts, or wildcard)
    • Roosevelt Field Mall ~ Garden City, NY
    • Palisades Mall (West Nyack, NY) & Stamford Town Center (Stamford, CT)
    • Menlo Park Mall, Monmouth Mall & Shops at Riverside Hackensack
There is no lift filming agenda again until the summer of 2023 when I graduate from Kean University unless the virtual option is back.

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...
