Hello Dear ! PolaBurrr
Would you tell me the details of Your plate, Alu case, Oil, lub, keycaps, etc, Please?
When you release the cherry stock switches, usually light weight springs have more pinging noise than heavier ones, IMO. http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=46449.msg981041#msg981041 I have tried to test and compare them with various cherry original stock springs I got, my version has similar or slightly less(or more) ping noise compare to them, IMHO.
Compared with :
- MX Blues : Vintage 3000 Blue, Dolch MX blue, New MX blue,
- MX Browns : Compaq 11800, 11900, Cherry 8200, 8113, 8955HPDUS, Reuters,
- MX Blacks : Cherry NCR G80-0528, G80-0879, G80-0904, 1000HAD, 1501HAD, 1800HAG, 2551HAD, TG3, 11900,
- MX Clears : Cherry G80-8113, G80-9009HAU Reuters, New Stock MX Clear SWs, etc
- MX SW Lub Guide
http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=34332.0I fix the quack issue by repositioning the springs in the SWs, making it sure 'Not' to touch the center column,
turning some degrees of angle inside SWs (check the spring coil cut position, I changed it by 90 degrees),
and finally I add very small amount of Krytox 104 oil to the inner side of springs. (I prefer the minimal lubrications, so my solution is limited)
And some enough Typing for 1-2 hours may help reducing the quack, as I found.
The ping noise when you release the switches(I mean the original stock SWs), there are some solutions suggested by others,
I guess I am not in a proper position for that, because I am used to some pining and not bothered, with mine or Cherry stock springs.
There are reports, as I know, Some thin Alu plates may increse pinging sound.
Hope more Reports and Tips for that Ping issue ! We have lots of experienced members for the Lub. Let's fix it together!
