~55dB, quietest keyboard I have
« on: Tue, 16 August 2016, 19:06:59 »
I just finish lubing and silencing my RF, the result is amazing. It's deadly silent. The SoundMeter App I have shows it's ~55dB while I am typing on it.

My other lubed MX Red without o-ring, thick PBT, metal case and plate is ~66dB.

What's your meter?  :D

The only keyboard I measured is the IBM Selectric, which is around 91 dB.
