Saltwater Power Assisted Reels

The most capable reel in the Tanacom lineup, the Daiwa Tanacom 800 is a 12-volt power assist conventional reel engineered for kite fishing, deep drop, and offshore big game applications where line capacity, drag power, and retrieval speed are non-negotiable. The defining engineering advancement is the in-spool motor placement — the motor and new gearing system are housed inside the spool itself rather than on the front of the reel, generating significantly more power, speed, and efficiency from the same dependable motor platform. Combined with a rigid frame and side plates and repositioned bearings with reduced water exposure, the Tanacom 800 delivers 30% faster retrieval and 20% more power than the Tanacom 750.

The oversized line guide aperture is large enough to pass swivels and large knots through — a critical feature for kite fishing rigs that allows anglers to crank the rig directly to the rod tip without stopping to clear the guide. Saltwater-sealed electronics with an LED dot screen and selectable language prompts guide anglers through power assist settings, automatic stop, and jigging features. Anglers can fight fish manually with the Power Lever and aluminum round knob, or engage the 12-volt variable-speed power assist for heavy hauling. Wash down after use without concern — the electronics package is fully sealed. Battery not included.

Daiwa Seaborg 500J Power Assist Electric Reel

Compact 500-size electric reel engineered for deep drop fishing and vertical jigging in the 800–1200 ft range. The Seaborg SB500J delivers 166 lbs of momentary winding power through Daiwa's MAGMAX G brushed motor while remaining light enough to feel the bite and stay connected through the fight. The JOG POWER LEVER lets you control retrieval speed with your thumb for hands-on, traditional fishing. Sixteen ball bearings—including 4 CRBB corrosion-resistant bearings with sealed cheeks and hardened surfaces—ensure smooth, durable operation. A MAGSEALED bearing on the spool shaft prevents water intrusion. Ideal for targeting deep snapper, tilefish, grouper, rock cod, lingcod, and halibut in Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific waters.

Features

• Compact 500-size frame designed for in-hand or holder-mounted fishing
• MAGMAX G brushed motor
• 166 lbs of momentary winding power
• JOG POWER LEVER thumb-controlled retrieval
• 16 total ball bearings, including 4 CRBB corrosion-resistant ball bearings
• MAGSEALED ball bearing along the spool shaft to help prevent water intrusion

Specifications

The Daiwa Seaborg G300J-DH Electric Reel is Daiwa's compact, palmable deep-water powerhouse — engineered for serious deep dropping and jigging at depths exceeding 1,000 feet. The MagMax G motor delivers the sustained power needed to bring up large deep-water species from extreme depths without fatigue, while the ATD (Automatic Tournament Drag) system provides up to 35 lbs of ultra-smooth, fade-free drag pressure for confident hooksets and sustained fights.

The JOG Power Lever gives you complete, one-finger variable speed and power control without ever taking your hand off the rod — critical when managing a deep drop bite at depth. MagSeal bearing technology locks out saltwater intrusion at the bearing level for lasting smooth performance in harsh offshore environments. The Swept Handle moves the paddles closer to the rod's centerline, reducing wobble and wasted energy for a more powerful, efficient retrieve. 

Key Features

• MagMax G Motor — High-torque electric motor delivers sustained power for retrieving large deep-water species from depths exceeding 1,000 feet without angler fatigue.
• ATD (Automatic Tournament Drag) — Improved drag grease with low viscosity at rest that becomes more viscous immediately after drag startup; reduces initial inertia for a smoother drag from the first moment of hookup.
• JOG Power Lever — One-finger operation for instant, variable speed and power adjustment without removing your hand from the rod; critical for managing deep drop bites and controlling retrieve speed.
• MagSeal Bearing — Magnetic oil seal at the bearing level locks out saltwater, sand, and debris for lasting smooth performance in harsh offshore environments.
• Swept Handle — Daiwa's exclusive swept handle design moves the paddles closer to the rod's centerline, reducing wobble and wasted energy for a more powerful, efficient manual retrieve.
• 18 Ball Bearings (1 MBB + 17 BB) — Premium bearing count for ultra-smooth operation across both electric and manual retrieve modes.
• 6.0:1 Gear Ratio — 32.7" per crank for efficient line recovery on deep drops and vertical jigging applications.
• Compact Palmable Design — Despite its power, the G300J-DH is sized for comfortable one-handed operation during extended deep-water sessions.
