What are the differences between electric and manual building hoists?

Electric building hoists are powered by electricity and can lift heavy loads quickly and efficiently. They are automated, reducing manual labor and increasing productivity. On the other hand, manual hoists require human effort to operate, making them slower and less efficient. They are less costly but demand more physical labor, which can lead to fatigue and potential accidents. Electric hoists are suitable for large-scale construction projects, while manual hoists are often used in smaller, more confined spaces where electricity might not be readily available or where the load is not excessively heavy.
