Silenced my HHKB Pro 2!

[dustinhxc]

It took me 3 hours total including taking photos and doing everything to how I want it done in the end. Enjoy!

3/16" Medium Neon Dental Bands. Seperated the Orange and Yellow for Candy Corn! and Pink and Purple because they rock!



Removed all of the keycaps





Removed the 3 phillips screws



Unplugged wire harness, Removed 17 I believe, smaller phillips screws



Popped the Plungers out by gently pressing the opposite end of my small screwdriver into them (it is a small ps3 screwdriver)
First 3 rows I did orange and yellow, plungers are the same direction on each hole not like stock they were random





Did pink and purple for the bottom 2 rows
The stabilizer plunger just pops out the same direction and push forward towards you









Used EK MechLube 2 to lube the stabilizers



Be careful, the springs and rubber fall off in certain areas of the circuit board



Re assemble, make sure plungers are facing down when re screwing circuit board screws

Finished product, sorry couldnt get the right lighting tonight..









Mod Price factor 10/10
Mod Satisfaction 10/10

Actuation presses are just a tad shorter but the sound is way more soothing, the Thock is beautiful and no high pitch rattle anymore. Love it!
It is like rain drops dropping everytime I type and it feels very smooth to type on.
Now I have a silenced HHKB Pro 2 in Black and had enough money leftover to spend on a CC instead of the special plungers.
Mod is definitely worth the time and obviously the price!

Quick Phone Video for yall.

Nice picture, thanks.

The sound is different but what about the feel?

You wrote that it feels very smooth to type on: but is it any different than before or identical? (without taking into account the sound / noise : say you had a headphones playing loud music and can't hear one or the other, is there any difference?)

Key travel is a little shorter but its still very snappy on release. Youd have to try it I think with and without and if its that big of a change then go for the type s sliders.

Very nice video and pictures. Sounds so satisfying.

Thank You!
