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.

@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 Thank you for watching!

5000 & 10000 are best for open party sportsboat

Sounds like there needs to be a 90 degree connection for the reel. 8:41 With a 4 lb sinker how often do the fish run around the boat with an electric reel? Thanks

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?

@stefffpv We used the 5000mah battery all day last weekend and it held up great and is very small.

Thanks Scott you're the best I just couldn't wrap my head around what rod to get before .I already followed all your socials I enjoy watching your content it's relaxing and entertaining more power to you Scott on to 10 million subs!

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

@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.

Do you know what the connector size is on the power cord and what pitch and if it's metric threading I'm trying to find a right angle power connector

I use a small stainless steel hose connector to hold onto the reel it's fits perfectly to both the wire harness connector and the female connector on the tamacon reel with a right angle connector, only bad thing the screw on nut is not the right size
