Daiwa Seaborg Power Assist Electric Reel
The Daiwa Seaborg Power Assist Electric Reels are high-performance fishing reels that are designed to give anglers an unparalleled fishing experience. With their cutting-edge technology and impressive features, these reels are the perfect choice for serious fishermen who demand the very best. The Seaborg Power Assist Electric Reel is built to last and is constructed with a high-strength composite aluminum frame, making it incredibly durable and resistant to wear and tear. It features a powerful and efficient Megatwin Motor that provides plenty of torque, so you can easily reel in even the biggest fish without breaking a sweat.
The Seaborg Electric Reels also comes equipped with a range of advanced features:
- Megatwin Motor - Daiwa’s original Seaborg Megatwin reel design utilizes a two-gear ratio system. The new Seaborg employs a totally redesigned system that allows the user to immediately switch between mega-power mode and mega-speed mode by simply touching a button. During retrieve or when battling a monster the new speed function switches smoothly and effortlessly. With this functionality, an angler can alternate to the best speed, depending on the situation.
- ATD (Automatic Drag System) - Gives you the power and poise to take control of whatever crosses your angling path. ATD is a combination of seven large carbon washers and improved drag grease. The new grease exhibits a low viscosity at rest, yet becomes more viscous immediately after drag start up.
- Jog Power Lever - Designed for standup fishing techniques, the Jog Lever will allow an immediate response to wind the line. When standing with the rod/reel outfit in your right hand the lever can be controlled with your left thumb. Alternatively, when using your left hand to hold the outfit, pinching the lever with your right hand will allow you to control the machine easily. This easy to use function will allow you to continuously lead the fight against your target.
- Dot Screen LCD Display - Out in the field it can be tough to read anything on an LCD screen due to sun glare or sunglasses. The Seaborg’s LCD screen displays large letters/numbers and uses a dotted LCD screen to make it easier for anglers to see the display. Line input procedures are selectable in Japanese or English languages.
- Magsealed Ball Bearings – Prevents water and dust intrusion inside the ball bearing which greatly reduces reel corrosion and noise. Applied to the spool shaft surrounding, a place where invasion of salt and dust is most likely to happen and maintenance is difficult. This will improve the long-term durability and the smoothness.
