I seem to get some bizzare feelings in my hands notably the left one in the evening and perhaps for a few days after using the top handle saw I have. Looking at the new 540t I have discovered the vibration number that is claimed falls between two saws that are supposed to differ only in plastic color the 338xpt and Jonsorend 2139. The California version has a bigger bore other than an error in the data that is the only logical reason I can think up.

Vibration wise is the 540t smoother just touching the handles in the designed points, Divert my thread all you want but ease of hot starting and low noise would be the next items of concern for my application.

It seems they shrunk my picture
338 3/3.5 m/s
2139 2.8/3.1m/s
540 3.1/3.2m/s
