Looking for better stabilizers for the Keychron Q6 Pro

cleric_warlock

Just put this keyboard together with some good quiet switches (haimu heartbeat silent), and the main area of improvement as far as making this board quiet seems to be the stabilizers. Anyone here have suggestions for good quiet PCB mount screw-in stabilizers?

I used these on mine:

They should already come with stabilizer pads to cushion the bottom out, paper washers to protect the PCB (nice to have when you rebuild them often, keeps away some of the wear) as well as the tiny pieces of electrical tape for the bandage mod iirc.

 

Most important imho with stabs is, however, to properly lube them. I used a combination of 205g0 and dielectric grease. The 205g0 alone would creep out of the housing over time, making them louder and almost rattle again. The dielectric grease seems much thicker in that regard.
