They're Getting Modded: Dover T4 High-Speed Elevators at Treasure Island in Las Vegas, NV.

[@BCsVators]

Sigh, so elegant, so awesome! The old elevators. I remember when I rode these in 2013 and so fun!

[@thegamerguy2591]

BEAUTIFUL ELEVATORS!

Music was muted due to copyright

[@JimLiElevators]

That’s correct. Just the music that I needed to mute.

I HATE KZbin’S COPYRIGHT POLICY!!! THEY MUTED THE SOUND JUST BECAUSE OF THE MUSIC!!!!! 👎🏻😡😠🤬😤

[@NWIndianaElevators]

Gotta love the modernization!!

[@JimLiElevators]

Love the mod... WHAT!? I thought you hate mods.

[@NWIndianaElevators]

I was just kidding... lol!! Anyway, I am kinda disappointed that they are replacing these one-of-a-kind fixtures with these bland and boring buttons!!

[@ZZ9ProductionsOFFICIAL]

ANOTHER DESTRUCTION THROUGH MODERNISATION?! This is getting silly now. Awesome video as always!

[@HeyItzCole]

I like those elevators that makes me happy :)

[@onhiatus526]

I (might) stay here at the Treasure Island this spring break! I have a bad feeling they all got modded, btw, I'll make it for your birthday, because I know you like Otis!

[@JimLiElevators]

Yeah but I like the vintage ones better now. anything vintage.

[@onhiatus526]

@@JimLiElevators4/3/24 update: They all got modded. :( The good news is the parking elevators are still original! :D

[@maddixlee9443]

I stayed at Treasure Island in June of 2019 and the high rise elevator were the same fixtures

[@JimLiElevators]

Do you know what's the current state of these elevators? In other words, are the mods finished?

[@maddixlee9443]

The low rise elevators were all finished but the high rise were in bad condition and they haven’t even started to do the modernization.

[@JimLiElevators]

Were there any Otis technicians when you stayed at this hotel? So the high-rise ones are in the process of modernization? Do you know how were these in bad condition? When I was here in 2018, I did not see any signs of wear at all.

[@maddixlee9443]

There were no Otis Technicians at Treasure Island but there was a Otis truck at Caesars palace and the reason I say they are in bad condition is because the elevator button letters were torn off and my floor which was the 30th floor the elevator door paint was wearing off and the down button looked like it was punched in because It was stuck in. Also the indicator on one of the cars was broken. When I stayed in 2019 the high rise weren’t getting modernized but I don’t know if they are modernized now.

[@JimLiElevators]

So you did not see any technicians when you were in Vegas the whole time? I actually saw like 13-15 of them when I was in town back in 2018. I also saw a ThyssenKrupp van off at Caesars as well. Mainly are Schindler technicians, but I've met 4 ThyssenKrupp technicians and one technician from this local company called Progressive Elevator.

[@ChrisNicholas1]

Okay, I get the whole point right now. I was wrong about the elevator modernization all along and you were right. Some old elevators DID messed up with modernizations. Can we please just drop it? It’s already have been used these old elevators for the past over 100 years. Try and keep up.

[@JimLiElevators]

That or parts are harder to find to maintain, so they have no other choice than to do a modernization.

[@PNWElevatorAviation]

WHAT!?!? I've never got a chance to push these buttons. I think the High Rises are not Gen2 mods because of maximum of 28 Floors. Eh, I guess the Series M2 is fine, but I prefer the Dovers. They use Innovation Bar PB 10 Buttons. They're DOVIS

[@logankojetin3606]

When I was here last time, one from high-rise and one from the lowrise were both broken down.

[@OPG2711]

Love those fixtures!

[@arthurb.5508]

Otis mostly always use the CE Electronics floor indicator when modernizing elevators.

[@OPG2711]

And don't forget the Series M2 fixtures as of late.

Hey to avoid copyright claims I claim in my videos all music is the property of its rightful owner and I have never gotten sued

[@charliep2240]

WHAT!!!!!!!!!! I never got to push the Dover T4 buttons

[@FloridianElevators]

The lantern at 3:53 looks like an Old Otis lantern

[@leo421loveselevators]

How come every few seconds the sound was cutting out?

[@JimLiElevators]

I actually muted the audio. There were music playing really loudly and I could definitely get a copyright notice although not a strike.

[@leo421loveselevators]

@@JimLiElevators ohhhh. I thought it it was a glitch

[@theclueguy3388]

Yep I’m not so happy about it. Treasure island is fully redoing their hotel

[@bostonelevatorsaviation]

Love the videos. FYI, Gen2s aren’t usually used on modernizaions. So i dont think these are Gen2s but I could be wrong. These have Series M4 buttons as series 7 /newer series 2/4 are not used in modernization packages, but yet another pointless mods

[@TechNerdNolan]

Were the original fixtures Armor?

[@JimLiElevators]

They look like to be some Armor type, but I don't really think those are actually Armor fixtures. Got to be some type of custom buttons.

[@atomstarfireproductions8695]

Why do they have to replace the motor with a slower one? Sure, it saves a little electricity, but it is much slower.

[@JimLiElevators]

I have no idea. Slow elevators in a high-rise building just don’t make sense.

[@atomstarfireproductions8695]

JimLiElevators i kind of hope that the SkyRise system for the high rise bank will be much faster

[@richardschultz3993]

They nearly sound like Otis chimes so I think they used to be an older Otis then modded by the dover and then the newer otis

[@tophound701]

How did you get past the room key guard?

[@JimLiElevators]

Did you not read the description?

[@tophound701]

@@JimLiElevators sometimes I forget to read those before watching the video... That's cool

[@TechNerdNolan]

Yeah so I was here a couple weeks ago and only the low rise was modded. No sign of the high rise being modded

[@Jowevator3219]

Dang everything is being modded

[@salito0387]

Do we need a key to use this elevators ?

[@JimLiElevators]

You have to show your room key to a hotel staff personnel standing right by the entrance to the elevator hallway lobby.

[@salito0387]

@@JimLiElevators thank you are any hotel around this one that you don’t need to show you key and you can just come and walk in ?

[@JimLiElevators]

Paris, Bally’s, Planet Hollywood, all towers of Caesars Palace, Westgate, Cosmopolitan, Flamingo, Circus Circus, LINQ, Harrah’s, Mirage, just to name the most are the ones I know of that are easily accessible.

[@orgo7921]

These aren't Gen 2. Its an Otis M2 elevators. They kinda have Gen 2 voices but it says "Floor 24". Also M2 does not travel more then 700 FPM. But it is just sad they are getting modded. 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@americanelevators]

Sigh, another Vegas classic is being destroyed. I loved the beautiful call chimes for up and down. A shame that these are getting modded. More and more of Steve Wynn's works of art are slowly fading away. Wynn and Encore had there custom TKEs modded with MAD BS already. Mirage and Belliago are lucky to have them mostly intact. (btw, i found out that all banks of Mandalay now require a key to operate 24/7)

[@TheElevatorandAirplaneFinder]

At least they didn't get modded by Schindler with the crappy buttons that the Paris Hotel got

[@kyleholbrook1288]

I ride the 16-27 elevators at the hotel 124

Rip the Dover elevator

[@richardschultz3993]

But don't you like gen2's

[@JimLiElevators]

Just the early ones from the 2000’s, not too much of the ones from the 2010’s.

[@richardschultz3993]

Well I found an 1850s Otis which was modded by Dover but it was the same year these were built

[@elevatorfromthestatesofmic782]

Not gen2 mod. Gen2 mods don’t exist.

[@JimLiElevators]

Yes, they actually do. Just search it up on Google and they will have plenty of results. I’m not lying. There is even a video on KZbin relating to that too.

Yup I am so unhappy with this mod, these got modded by otis😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭I wish I got the parts

[@FloridianElevators]

The New Mod is so generic, boring and slow compared to the originals!!! And they ran just fine!!! Such a pointless mod...

[@JimLiElevators]

That is what I EXACTLY said in the description if you gotten a chance to read it. I stated a VERY STRONG, valid definition of what a REAL elevator truly is. So LET ME ASK you this, what did you think of my strongly valid definition I stated in the description below?

[@OPG2711]

Agreed.

[@FloridianElevators]

@@JimLiElevators I totally agree with it!!!

[@JimLiElevators]

Floridian Elevators And this video also visually proves it as well.

[@lucasnassar2778]

At least the speed travel is the same(500-800 fpm),and really needs a better indicator,you almost don't see anything,and better lighting buttons,will have voice,once you ride this modded one,you will love it,plus the new lanterns are awesome
