OBNOXIOUS Otis Series 1 Elevonic 401 Traction Elevators at The Pan Pacific Hotel, Vancouver, BC

Taken March 10th, 2018.
WARNING! At 5:46 a PG-13 Curse Word is used by someone in the elevator. Normally I edit this stuff out but I don't have as much time to edit as I used to (and they didn't curse up a storm), which is also why I don't put intros in every video like I did last year. Don't worry, it was someone else, I didn't curse, but I still wanted to warn you as a heads up as I normally try to keep my content Family/Kid Friendly/PG Rated.
Alright, these are just AMAZINGLY & OBNOXIOUSLY FAST and VERY FUN Elevators!!! I will admit, I exaggerate and say elevators stop hard or start hard way TOOOO much whenever I'm on a High Rise Elevator system, but these, OMG!!!! I can't describe how these really felt!!!! They start up EXTREMELY HARD and are VERY FORCEFUL whenever they start up and move and a lot of time when they stop too!!!! ESPECIALLY the elevator car I rode at both the beginning and end of the video!!!! Going up, YOU'RE BEING LAUNCHED IN SPACE!!!! Going Down, TOWER OF TERROR, WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!! These have the ride quality of a THEME PARK Ride even though they are just elevators, and they are 1000-1200 FPM for ONLY 23 FLOORS!!!! The ONLY other elevators I have EVER been on with this kind of "Theme Park style" ride quality are these, the Two Union Square Tower in Seattle, The SunTrust Plaza in Atlanta, the Republic Center in Chattanooga and the Marriott Marquis in Atlanta (before those were modded especially, back when I rode them in 2011 as a kid before my 2016 visit). These are TRULY AMAZING and they cabs are VERY NICE and look like that of a modern Four Seasons or Ritz Carlton Hotel, and the fixture and these as a whole were in MINT CONDITION!!! The hotel appeared to be VERY NICE too, in addition to these AMAZING ELEVATORS!!!! The most boring one in the bank ride quality wise had the Grandma voice, but the most crazy ones didn't, plus the chimes were faded on all but the craziest one in the bank. Anyways, with that all being said, let's ride these AMAZING ELEVATORS!!!! And hopefully, these ROCKETS NEVER EXPLODE!!! (aka hopefully these never get modded)
P.S. Techyboy, you're welcome for me yelling the name of your favorite city in the video LOL
Installed: 1986

I love the elevators that up and down so hard because i love the feeling when my guts just sink in you know and that didn’t sound right!

[@elevatorsfromfrance_official]

They're really fun to ride !

[@PNWElevatorAviation]

I was gonna think this is from 1986 🤣🤣 1986 was a BIG year for Elevators. BIG year for Elevators like these!!

[@alpaljl]

This place looks beautiful.

[@SpeedVator]

Wow I would have fun riding these elevators! These actually go at 700 fpm but still a decent speed. The low rise elevators at the Sky Tower at Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, CT has Otis Elevonic 411 Series 4 from 2002 that also go at 700 fpm and have some very fast acceleration and deceleration, the acceleration and deceleration is probably similar to these elevators

[@OPG2711]

I’m starting to like Elevonic 401 more.

[@FloridianElevators]

OPM1961 They are a very fun Elevator system and their technology was VERY ADVANCED and HIGH TECH for it's time. They were the first fully computerized elevators with no relays whatsoever. (Elevonic 101 was computerized but it still used some relays)

[@ElevatingArizonaByGageWilliams]

OPM1961 Otis Elevonic 401 elevators beep when you press the button and they beep when they go past each floor

[@sophianaughton8054]

Awesome videos epic accent

[@mariokart8715]

Andrew also rode those too.

[@blueauraretriever]

Oh lmfao "CHARLOOOOOOOOTTE" frirnd!

[@elevatorfilmersg]

Ok, that’s really really fast acceleration. Assuming the distance between each elevator landing is just above 3 metres, and given that the elevator takes about 5 seconds to go up 3 floors or a distance of about 10 metres, the acceleration is about 1.5m/s^2 or 5ft/s^2 which is very very fast. If only elevators today have acceleration and deceleration that’s as fast and all have pre doors, then lots of precious time would be saved. I bet some crappy generics which have the same top speed as this otis would take more than double the time from when the doors close till it opens if they were to travel the same distance due to the slow acceleration and deceleration and lack of pre doors

[@ScottySullivanYT]

Oh Charlotte!

[@ElevatingArizonaByGageWilliams]

These elevators beep when you press the button and they beep when they go past each floor

[@VancityElevators]

Bonus feature: There are also Hitachi escalators located somewhere.

[@FloridianElevators]

Vancity Elevators Really? Didn't know that!! Cool!

[@jamesc.6367]

(skips directly to 5:46)

[@DanielSheytoon]

Film the elevators at Hotel Vancouver Fairmont

[@BCsVators]

He did already.

[@jeffreycheng6637]

This elevator uses the British flooring system

[@garyhisgun4996]

Do the rest of them have the voice silenced

[@VancityElevators]

One of the lifts in this hotel have a grandma voice from the 1980's. Some announcements are custom made like "4th floor, restaurant level".

[@FloridianElevators]

Yes they do or it is broken

[@AdazElevatorz]

The elevators in the Yacht and Beach Club are 401s, right?

[@FloridianElevators]

AdazElevatorz 411 actually, I think

[@AdazElevatorz]

Their not 411, the hotel was built in 1989, and 411s started in 1991. Plus, 411s don’t have as much leveling. They accelerate quickly, like you said these do.

[@FloridianElevators]

AdazElevatorz 411 actually started in 1989

[@FloridianElevators]

And those 2 hotels were completed in 1990. I'm friends with an Otis guy in the Orlando area, that's how I know all of this

[@AdazElevatorz]

But did 411s exist on Lexans? I’m pretty sure they are 401s just because of the doors, the amount of classic leveling, and the quick acceleration. PAelevators thinks they are 101s, but I think 101s were discontinued.

[@2035jim]

I’m sorry that you had to deal with people swearing in public places that’s ridiculous

[@BCsVators]

I’m very eager to film these!

[@BCsVators]

Well, after you uploaded this, I went here on the next day, lol. Although that was last month.

[@tkefan29]

Deez are the ones that were just modded, right?

[@FloridianElevators]

Yup!

[@FloridianElevators]

These are the ones getting the Series M2 Mod
