Topre Hi-Pro on hhkb

[phoxxii]

I was wondering if there is anyways to take realforce Hi profile keys and put them onto an HHKB? I've heard that they are not compatible but currently can't find any sources on this.

Thanks!

You have to take the hipro sliders as well and replace the sliders on the HHKB.

I don't think you can do this. The hhkb can only have its sliders replaced. The actual mounts that hold the sliders are built into the case.

The hipro requires those special mounts to accommodate the keys.

I don't see this working.

Do you mean the portion surrounding the stem that the keycaps click into? If yes I understand how this problem becomes unavoidable.

Thanks

I've put Hi-Pro caps on my HHKB. The different housing helps to stabilize the downstroke. Without it, there's a slight wobble. Aside from that, if you don't mind, it's viable.

That's awesome to hear!

As the other guys said, you can put Hi-Pro caps on HHKB, but not the converse.
