  • How to choose a battery to run your electric reel is one of most important decisions when you decide to get one. We will cover the different kinds of batteries for electric reels, options, and things you need to look out for when deciding what kind of battery you need for your electric reels.

    I was curious why Diawa didn’t offer branded batteries for their electric reels. My understanding of Diawa’s Mfg. Warranty is it voids warranty if reel electronics damaged due to use of an external battery when the reel was not directly wired into the boat’s electrical system. Since I don’t own a boat and rely solely on open party sport boats, not prepared to spend $$$ on a setup just to be told too bad if something happens to the reel. I am looking hard at that Piscifun Kraken, but I too want to see how their battery holds up.

      @scottnra  Před 3 měsíci

      @jimvin6877 We have used the 10,000mah battery on a very long deep drop trip or two and never had it run out. Those trips usually showing 75-80% battery left at the end of the trip! We are looking forward to testing out the 5000mah battery this season starting very soon. That Kraken reel is a beast for it size and we are very happy with it. I would order it as a combo with the 5000MAH battery in a minute for a party boat situation. You can see that combo here: shrsl.com/44uxl

    Awesome video I am looking for a el reel what reels do you think is good and still small. Here in Norway it’s not the best options but they sell the Tanacom 750 the new 800and the older 1000. But I want one little lighter? I don’t mind buy outside of Norway. And is the 5000mah battery the smallest on the market?

    • @scottnra
      @scottnra  Před měsícem

      @stefffpv We used the 5000mah battery all day last weekend and it held up great and is very small. Check out the Kraken Combo here: shrsl.com/44uxl It's a great electric set up without being too heavy.

    • @scottnra
      @scottnra  Před 5 hodinami

      That's a big question @fordaiffa6022. its going to depend on how many drops and what depth and how many fights. I have had great luck with the 5000MAH kraken Battery here: shrsl.com/4en5h I've only had it die one time and that was on the last 100' of the last drop of a very long day of blueline Golden and Rosie fishing.

    @jamesjolly3299 Před 5 měsíci

    Will charging the batteries between drops or later in the day from generator on boat shortened battery life or do you have to run battery all the way down before charging? Thanks

    • @scottnra
      @scottnra  Před 5 měsíci

      @jamesjolly3299 No sir it won't hurt, but I doubt it would help too much. We've tested all but the 5000MAh Piscifun on all day trips and never even got close to running out of juice. Mid may kicks off our tilefish season and we might get out on a grouper trip before then to try it out.

    I'm just getting a used Daiwa Seaborg 500j electric reel via FedEx... which is scheduled to arrive in 3 days.What is the best matching rod for this reel ?
    This is just to learn lessons before buying a brand new pricey latest Daiwa electric reel.
    I'm very insanely energetic with very strong hands (during fishing)
    Need advice from you.

      @mrxiong2567 easily! Every battery we;ve used has lasted the day including the 5000MAH Piscifun unit. We were surprised but it did great deep dropping to 800 on an all day trip! Check out the kraken combo here: shrsl.com/44uxl That battery will attach to shimano, Diawa and others as well.
