    I have some questions for you / anyone who can answer them
    1. Why are the old remote monitoring stations on?
    2. Have you ever tried the interface on the new monitoring stations
    3. Why does every tower block have these red locks
    4. You should try and get inside the cell site rooms
    5. Im guessing the light outside maybe for the maglock control or something
    6. Are you doing every single tower block in London?

      1. I don't know. They are always on but they never do anything. Often the LCD display does not work on them.
      2. There is not much you can do on the new monitoring stations other than make a phone call.
      3. Too many people got too much knowledge about the original locks so all the locks were replaced with very secure ones with a circular 16 pin design which is impossible to pick or get around it.
      4. Those always use custom key. I once got in one when it was being modernized.
      5. There is no maglock on these blocks. Tower Hamlets is the area that are ultra paranoid and use maglocks.
      6. Yes

      Beno Lifts thanks for replying especially so late. Do they all have the same key for these red locks or does each tower block have a different one

    It would be cool if you could get a close up of the fire alarm panels on these sites, and maybe a smoke detector too.
    Be interesting to see what systems they have in these buildings

    I hate when people say yellow is a primary colour too. It's RGB, not RYB!
    -(Of course, art works on RBY)-

    • @benolifts
      @benolifts  6 лет назад +7

      Art is not RYB either. Everyone gets this wrong. When starting with white the primaries are cyan, magenta and yellow. When starting with black the primaries are red, green and blue. Printers which print on white paper have to get it right to print the full range of colors. Artists who think they can get all the colors with RYB don't know what they are talking about.

    • @TheDragonFire123
      @TheDragonFire123 6 лет назад +1

      Yep. I don't work in art, but when I suggested green was a primary colour in an art class, everyone laughed at me... (Of course, that was wrong too, as subtractive was CMY, not either RGB or RYB)
      I knew it was RGB from when I first worked with hex colours. Everyone else probably didn't work with hex colour codes, so they probably got it wrong

    Why would they have added cladding to these kinds of older buildings in the first place? Make them look better? Make them more energy efficient?

    Yellow, Red, and Blue are the 3 primary colours...

    • @benolifts
      @benolifts  5 лет назад +5

      WRONG. It is shocking how many people have learnt this misinformation. It is scary that we live in a modern day world and people still do not know this basic information.
      Starting with black, the 3 primary colours are Red Green and Blue. Just look at what colour LEDs are in a monitor.
      Starting with black, the 3 primary colours are Cyan, Yellow and Magenta. These are the only 3 colours that can be mixed together to make black.
      Using Yellow, Red, and Blue when starting at white, will not make black when all 3 colours are mixed together. Also, certain shades of Green are not available. And, Using Yellow, Red, and Blue when starting at black gets nowhere, it simply is not useable.

    • @therealvbw
      @therealvbw 5 лет назад +1

      @@benolifts In actual physical mixing (clay, paints, etc), red, yellow, and blue are the colours that can make up all others.
      Red, green, and blue are the 3 primary colours of LIGHT, and thus can be mixed on an LED monitor to make all colours.
      Buy some red, yellow, and blue paint and start mixing them if you don't believe me...

    • @benolifts
      @benolifts  5 лет назад +4

      When using paint, the correct prime colours are Cyan, Yellow and Magenta.
      Red, yellow, and blue is a historic thing. This is what people used before modern science took over. With Red, yellow, and blue there are certain shades of green that can not be created.
