  • (February 2023) I wanted to check up on the insane Thyssenkrupp elevator I found a few years ago at Seascape condos, but to my surprise, this thing got an absolutely unexpected and crazy modernization. At first, it seemed like a total replacement, but after riding it and further research, they managed to upgrade a Thyssenkrupp ISIS elevator with a new Smartrise controller, fixtures, and other components while keeping the original motor in the pit! I've never seen anything like this before, and it's really interesting way to modernize one of these. I'm kind of sad the original junky elevator is gone, but this is a huge improvement to what was here. Be sure to check out my original video of this elevator: • Insane 6 Floor Thyssen...

    Honestly, this is kind of a tasteful mod. Espcially with the original lantern still active in the doorframe. Even with the new buttons, the whole operation of this elevator still screams Thyseenkrupp ISIS elevator. The motor being original is still pretty cool.

      If you listen to my original video, you can hear how the old controller runs the motor. It's the same motor, but the drive controls it slightly different and it makes a different sound.

    I actually like this mod, with how they kept the existing motor in the pit and all that. The only thing I don't like about it is that the buttons could have been made blue and same with that indicator, it could have been blue or white instead of red. But overall they did a pretty good job on this mod.

      the property owner is maintaining their property. this elevator was a piece of crap, and now it's less of a piece of crap. TKE ISIS models are cheap and low quality, they aren't going to be lasting long at all unless they're in a light use area

      @@user-kp6xf4gf7t all of these ISIS models are from the early 2000s. but that means nothing, the ISIS is similar to shindler 3300s/3100s in that they are the absolute bottom of the barrel installations with horrible quality equipment. TKE never had decent traction equipment at all until the evolution line, but Otis still smokes every other company with MRL installs/quality.
