Is the weight listed when selecting a style the bottom out weight or actuation weight? I'm guessing the latter but I'm not entirely sure.

Never mind, I just missed the chart that lists the different weights as actuation weight.

CyndActually, after a little more investigating, the listing that puts it as actuation weight might be wrong. I initially looked into this because Durock switches, which are made by JWK just like these Everglides, come in 55g, 62g, and 67g BOTTOM OUT weight (along with some other weights), and I thought it was strange that these switches had the same weights listed as actuation when they are both made by JWK. Then I saw the force charts for each of the switches, suggesting that 55g, 62g, and 67g were the bottom out forces like on Durock linears. Let me know what your assessments are, because it would suck to order 55g switches expecting 55g actuation like a Gat Yellow and then getting a <40g actuation and 55g bottom out.
