The elevator is perhaps the jankyest and most dangerous thing we have at Noisebridge. Please, do not use it unless absolutely necessary.
Excellent uses of the elevator include:
1) For disability access to the space (if you have visible or non-visible mobility impairment)
2) Taking out the NB trash on trash night
3) Taking in large donations to the space
4) Taking in or Moving out large equipment or furniture
5) Taking out NB E-Waste
Unexcellent uses of the elevator include:
1) Bringing your bike up b/c you are too lazy to carry it up stairs
2) Bringing your bike down b/c you are too lazy to carry it down stairs
3) b/c you are too tired / drunk and don't "feel like walking"
Unexcellent uses of the elevator will result in verbal reprimand for a first offense. Repeated offenses will be brought up at NB meetings and discussion and will be taken seriously.
Use the elevator buzzer if you need assistance, or if the call buttons do not work.
The elevator light fixture uses a GU24 base rather than a "screw-in" socket - it requires a 26 watt / GU24 base bulb (such as Eco-Stor model # P26SP-GU24/WW - about $6 + tax from Discount Builder Supply on 13th Street and Mission)
July 27 2010 Test report:
1st floor call button normally closed contacts were impacted with nonconductive dirt. Cleaning is performed with simple white paper, not anything else. Please, if you ever clean these call button relays do not use abrasives, they shorten the life of the relay. Also be sure to take voltage precautions since the switch has 120VAC across it.
When any call button doesn't work, the whole system doesn't work. Is that what is called 'failsafe'?
There's a PDF for an elevator test plan uploaded to the Noisebridge wiki for the elevator. Test monthly.
