At 375 g, it is the lightest in DAIWA’s history. Its lightness delivers ‘AIR MONSTER’ sensitivity.

The weight is 375g, and a new size has been added to the DAIWA electric reel range.
The world of DAIWA electric reels, which has long championed the motto ‘Lightness equals sensitivity’, has expanded even further. The fact that they are now lighter and more compact leads to improved sensitivity and enhanced handling.
Not only is it lightweight and compact, but the adoption of HYPERDRIVE DIGIGEAR (drive gear + pinion gear) has also improved its manual reeling performance, resulting in a stronger and smoother reeling feel. Precisely because this is a compact electric reel that overlaps in application with two-axis reels, we have placed particular emphasis on enhancing its manual reeling performance. The reel is equipped with a MAGMAX motor, which delivers both torque and instantaneous power. It achieves a maximum Drag Force of 7 kg and a JAFS-standard winding power of 6 kg. With a line capacity of 300 m of PE No. 1 or 200 m of PE No. 1.5, it is capable of handling a wide range of species, including Cutlassfish, round squid, Mackerel, Sea Bream, red seabream, flounder and Filefish, as well as techniques such as Tairaba and squid jigging. Not only does this eliminate the hassle of retrieving the line from deep-water spots, but it also dramatically improves casting efficiency. Furthermore, with ‘Electric Mobile Setting’ compatibility, line input, maintenance management, function settings and personalisation of the unit can all be carried out via the DAIWA app.

DAIWA Technology

JOG POWER LEVER
The power lever has been repositioned to the centre of the body, and its design has been changed from a lever to a jog dial style. This allows the angler to perform reeling and engage or disengage the clutch using just the thumb of the hand holding the Rod, completely freeing the other hand from operating the lever so that the angler can concentrate fully on handling the Rod. This flexible one-thumb operation enables precise control of the lever, allowing the angler to adjust the reeling speed at will.
MAGMAX MOTOR
The MAGMAX MOTOR is a custom motor designed exclusively for DAIWA electric reels. The ‘special neodymium magnets’, which form the core of the motor system, are ideal for generating sufficiently high torque even at low speeds under light loads, combining toughness with power. As well as accommodating delicate power adjustments such as ‘slow reeling’ and ‘gentle stops at the Gunwale’, this responsive brush motor also excels in burst power.
MAGSEALED BALL BEARING
Using its proprietary technology, DAIWA has succeeded in becoming the first in the world to apply MAGSEALED technology to the ball bearing itself. A wall of magnetic fluid prevents water and foreign particles from entering the interior of the ball bearing, thereby significantly reducing rust, salt deposits and abnormal noises whilst maintaining the ball bearing’s inherent rotational performance.
HYPERDRIVE DIGIGEAR
A newly designed gear system engineered to ensure consistently strong and smooth rotation. This is DAIWA’s proprietary technology, which achieves long-lasting initial smoothness by increasing the meshing ratio without reducing the module (size) of the gear teeth—a factor directly linked to durability.
ATD
The ATD operates smoothly in response to the fish’s pull and maintains a consistent drag. Designed to minimise slippage and ensure excellent tracking, it allows you to concentrate on the fight without having to worry about drag settings.

*The standard winding speed is the average speed at which 100 m is wound with a 1 kg load at a supply voltage of 13 V.
*The JAFS standard winding power (power range for the Mega Twin mechanism) and speed are approximate values based on the regulations of the Japan Fishing Tackle Manufacturers Association, assuming a supply voltage of 13V.
*The JAFS standard winding speed refers to the value measured at a supply voltage of 13V in accordance with the Japan Fishing Tackle Manufacturers Association standards. It is the winding speed under no-load conditions at the outer diameter of the Spool.
*The figures in brackets are approximate values based on the use of Super Lithium.
*Regarding the power supply*
This electric reel is compatible with 12V to 16.8V direct current (DC). It cannot be used with power sources outside the specified range, such as 100V alternating current (AC) from a domestic mains supply or 24V DC from boat equipment. Furthermore, due to generators and wiring, the voltage of a boat power supply can easily become unstable, which may cause the reel’s protection circuit to activate, resulting in the reel stopping or rotating intermittently. To ensure the reel performs to its full potential, please use a genuine Daiwa battery designed for electric reels (please check ‘View Details’ for compatible batteries).
