    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

      Me and my girlfriend just bought the kranken X reel for a tile fishing trip. The gear stripped out almost immediately on my girlfriends reek and then mine did the same towards the end if the trip. I do not recommend these reels. I'm going to see what I can do about warranty with these reels but I would never rely on them for a fishing trip again.

    5000 & 10000 are best for open party sportsboat

      @scottnra  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @johnsmith-xd9ej agree. No loose cord to deal with. you can get the batteries or the combo here and the batteries work with all electric reels: shrsl.com/44uxl

    Sounds like there needs to be a 90 degree connection for the reel.

    With a 4 lb sinker how often do the fish run around the boat with an electric reel?

    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  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @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.

    • @scottnra
      @scottnra  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      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.

      all of these will work on it if it uses the same connector as a Diawa or Shimano. The Li-po batteries are hard to beat! These from LiTime are also good. I'm running one for my trolling motor now to test it for a video. amzn.to/3YX8mvK There are links to the other in the description below the video.

But I want one little lighter? I don’t mind buy outside of Norway. And is the 5000mah battery the smallest on the market?

    i just came across "bloody battery", it's a little pack that velcros to rod. so far that style is my favorite, but expensive. right now i'm using my LiFe powerwheels battery due to the size and weight. don't think i wanna mess with plugs on the boat, for me it's prob a bit excessive.

      @tim6986 The LiFe's are great! I just did a video on a big 12v 100AH that we're using for our jon boat. THe little fist size ones from Piscifun are the best deal going for electric reels right now. check them out here: shrsl.com/4en5h Great to have for a spare if nothing else.

So far it's only died on one trip that was a 2 part trip with a limit of bluelines first at 300'+ and then goldens and rosies at 900'! It died on the last drop of the day. No big deal there.
