Beautiful ThyssenKrupp Traction elevator @ Westin Saint Louis MO

[owenhinton]

such a nice elevator, such a bad DOVER BUZZ!!

WOW! That is really a beautiful thyssenkrupp elevator

[seanieb64]

wow, only TK/Dover, leather interior, and $.02 buzzer

[suzzex]

I think this was an original Dover.

I found an elevator with leather walls at one of many Marriotts in Charlotte.

ThyssenKrupp just had to make that ugly buzzing noise. They just had to screw around with the Dover buzz. Perhaps a more soothing chime would have made this elevator a little bit more calming, although I have to admit, even though I am against real leather, it is really nice.

I don;'t mind the buzz (i like it in fact since I'm a ThyssenKrupp fan), but the bell indicator should use an electronic bell instead of a mechanical bell

[patricknedz]

no way! the mechanical is WAY better than electronic

[cubsrule2040]

electronic bells are more ADA-compliant than mechanical because you can hear electronic better.

[patricknedz]

if you are like me and Andrew then you would like the old stuff

The buzz does get annoying. It's weird because usually TK or Dover tractions have a chirp or beep; it's mainly the hydraulics that have the buzz.

The ThyssenKrupp Synergy has a buzz

I rode on a ThyssenKrupp traction in Memphis and the BZZZ was a bit long. I think I recorded it (the Doubletree).

For halogen and incandescent bulbs, they last about 2000-3000 hours, while fluorescent bulbs last 10,000 hours, and LED bulbs can last up to 100,000 hours.

What is the average life span of a fixture light? Just curious.
