This is another ride on the Eagle Hydraulic Elevator, inside Thompson Hall at Fitchburg State University, Fitchburg, Massachusetts.
 There probably was some work done on it, as this lift is notorious for a decent black-out period, when the hydraulic pump starts up (after priming).
It appears the blackout still exists, but the duration is not as long, short enough the video barely picked up everything going black (appears as a mild brownout). This system doesn't lose total power long enough for the electronics to "forget" what it's doing, or where it needs to go.
Brownouts don't completely stop, just dim lights when starting. All systems go dead here.

--------------------
DEATH TRAP RATING: 2/10
Complete blackout of all systems, tiny duration.
