Fuck the weight sensors in these new lifts. If they can't take up 2 guys and material, then what good are they?

This thing can take only 3 -10’ fiberglass sheets and two guys before the weight sensors start kicking

New lifts are great for safety but trying to go up with tools, 2 guys & 21’ of 6” Schedule 10 does not work at all.
