Daiwa 22 Tanacom

Its not often Daiwa releases a new electric dendoh reel and theres arguably no name more famous in the category than Tanacom. A total overhaul from the ground up, the Tanacom 1200 is a project half-a-decade in the making between Daiwa Japan engineers and teams within Australia and America.

Sporting a totally new design, incorporating the motor housed inside the spool, has given Daiwa engineers the ability to increase the efficiency of the powerful motor, the same reliable unit thats been used on Tanacom 1000 in the past. Installed in this new frame, the motor generates even more power thanks to an improved drivetrain which has been totally reengineered with beefier gears and internal components to improve durability and minimise power loss.

More power is also accompanied by more speed, a feat often difficult to achieve since a faster retrieve inevitably means lower torque, the same principal as
