Hyperion keyboard

[Williams]

Hello,

I have a Dynalogic Hyperion that I have almost finished restoring, however I need to replace the foam pads in the keyboard as they have almost completely disintegrated. I have one option which is to order some new ones from a company in the US called Mil-key, but they are not cheap (being the only company that still produces or stocks them!). I know this is probably a long shot but if anyone has one (keyboard) they would be willing to sell, let me know.
Thanks! :killcomputer:

Mil-key is the only source that I know of, and yes, they are spendy. (75 cents US the last time I contacted them.) To redo an entire keyboard would cost $75 for me.

The alternative is to try to find suitable foam and reuse the capacitive part of the existing foam. Search the forum for Mil-key to find the previous thread.

Your information was helpful as the posting for repairing a SOL-20 keyboard looks to be the same. If I have to go with ready made pads it will cost me about $150+ ($CAN) as he will not ship less than a hundred units plus shipping plus customs. Anyways I'll try to make them myself, and leave the Mil-key option as a backup.:-D
