Frequently asked questions.

Still unsure? Call +1-877-337-9591. You'll talk to a builder, not a sales rep.

  • Can electric reels be used manually if the battery dies?

    Yes, nearly all modern electric reels include a standard manual handle. You can continue to hand-crank your line and fight fish using manual physical power if you lose electrical connectivity.

  • What are the required voltage and power sources for this reel?

    The Daiwa Seaborg 800MJ operates on a 12-Volt DC system (with an acceptable range of 12V to 16.8V). It draws up to 20 Amps under max load. You should power it using a dedicated 12V marine battery or specialized lithium-ion pack rather than a boat's fluctuating plug-in power outlet.

  • How does the Mega-Twin dual-gear system work?

    The system allows you to shift instantly between high-speed retrieval and high-power torque modes. This automation allows you to clear empty hooks from the deep sea rapidly in speed mode, then seamlessly switch to power mode when battling heavy fish.

  • Are catches made with an electric reel eligible for IGFA records?

    No, the International Game Fish Association (IGFA) explicitly prohibits power-driven reels for official world record consideration. Any motorized assistance is viewed as an unfair physical advantage over the fish.

  • How do you prevent an electric reel from ripping off your rod tip?

    Electric reels feature an adjustable auto-stop function. You program the integrated digital line counter to automatically cut power and stop retrieval when the rig gets within a safe distance (typically 3 to 15 feet) of the boat.
