The day the parking garage elevator switched from relays to a VFD was the smoothest Tuesday I've had in 12 years
Had a call at a garage downtown, old Otis unit with a bad start resistor, swapped the whole controller to a MicroTech drive and the thing ran so quiet I actually checked my phone to see if I was still in the right building, anyone else get that feeling when a fix just works too good?

MicroTech drives are like magic for old Otis gear man

@the_joel you're absolutely right about that. Those MicroTech drives have saved my skin more than once with older equipment. It's good to see someone else who's been through the same headaches with those vintage Otis systems. There's something satisfying about watching an old gearbox run smooth again with a modern controller driving it. Glad you found them too, it makes a world of difference on those older jobs.
