I can't find the levels of haemagglutinin in runner beans, but the following table from a paper on the subject of haemagglutinin poisoning from the British Medical Journal is interesting, and is, I think, the primary source of most references on the subject. It's not a huge evidence base, but it does suggest that kidney beans, especially the red ones, are the danger.
And remember that these are dried beans, not the fresh immature beans that we eat when we eat runner beans. All of the cases of bean poisoning that had been reported in the UK at that time related to red kidney beans. None to cannellini beans, in spite of their relatively high haemagglutinin levels.

I eat beans in all forms, I am quite partial to the uncooked mature bean straight from the pod, I eat French beans raw all the time, in huge quantities. I have never had as much as bad wind. All that said and done, I do not eat that many red kidney beans, they are not the best bean in my opinion, so I don't bother with them much.
All this is anecdotal of course. Hi folks! I came across your forum whilst looking for info on raw runner beans. At this afternoon, my wife and I were in the allotment, eating raw runner beans straight from the plant. We have two varieties, one with white beans, the other being pink with black markings. These beans are mature, with a lot of them already turned brown; we only ate the ones that were still green.
By 7pm I was projectile vomiting, and you really don't want to know what was happening at the other end at the same time. This lasted about 3 hours, every minute of which I either thought I was going to die, or wished I could. By 11pm, the vomiting had stopped and the stomach cramps were subsiding. Over 2 hours later, I'm sat here getting some fluids back inside me, whilst I listen to the constant opening and closing of the bathroom door.
Luckily, my wife appears to have missed the vomiting part. As the only thing we ate in common today was the beans, I think we can safely say they were the cause. As for the difference in the effect between us, I was eating the larger, more mature beans, whilst my wife was eating the smaller ones because they were juicier.
