Less room for human error with them. Less chance of technical error. So, yea, Universal seems to think these are a step up.Are these new lockers an improvement?

Seems to be a question I’m hearing a lot lately. We must get to the bottom of this! Where’s @Skubersky when we need a hero?I always noticed with Hulk, that the lockers don't give you a time, is there a limit? Can you put in your stuff and ride a few times?
I definitely remember getting a time limit a few times at Hulk's lockers, but it was always 2 hours for me. I always just put my stuff in and ride 2-3 times with no problems.I always noticed with Hulk, that the lockers don't give you a time, is there a limit? Can you put in your stuff and ride a few times?
On the old lockers they use a time limit formula, typically the posted wait plus 15-20 minutes. I’ve done back to back Hulk rides using express or singles with no locker trouble, but I’d ask a TM before reriding standby.Seems to be a question I’m hearing a lot lately.

Talked to the Smartcarte vendor at IAAPA, the new lockers require far fewer button presses per transaction so guest throughput should increase dramatically. Plus, no more biometric scans, since guests can never remember which finger they used...Less room for human error with them. Less chance of technical error.

Damn, that was a fast reply. It's like making a wish with the Genie in the bottle.On the old lockers they use a time limit formula, typically the posted wait plus 15-20 minutes.

Wasting no time...
Sorry I am so out of touch, but what exactly do these scan, a barcode?
It warns you in voice and on screen that YOUR RENTAL IS NOW OVER, PLEASE REMOVE ALL OF YOUR ITEMS when you return to open it again.What happens when you come back to get one thing out of the locker but leave other stuff behind for later? Is there a touch screen that asks your intentions?
I honestly preferred the finger scan, but I can see why they went this route with the new scanning of the tickets. While I thought the finger scan was very easy to do, some people just couldn't figure it out and I would always see people struggling with them. Unfortunately, the last couple of times I've been, I have also seen people struggling with the new lockers, but I do believe this number was far less than before.Are these new lockers an improvement?
