A TOTAL overhaul from the ground up, 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 and elevate the famous Tanacom name to another level.
Located within the reel 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 faster retrieve speed is a great feature when deep dropping, as your ability to reposition or check baits is sped up dramatically.
Setting up the Tanacom 1200 is also now easier than ever, with a redesigned menu system that has been simplified and carefully designed to offer easy user experience for first time users and familiarity for long-time Daiwa dendoh fans. The Dot Monitor LCD screen has also been improved, with a brighter display and better viewing angles when wearing polarised sunglasses.
An increased line capacity (PE8/1000m) and an aluminium ball knob combine with other significant reel improvements and combine to see the new Tanacom 1200 set the bar on what is achievable in electric reel design and performance.
