Are they? From what i can see, steez spool has longer inductor than zillion spool, just like non boost version spools. Hopefully someone with both reels can confirm.Cracker wrote: ↑Tue Jan 05, 2021 3:18 pmI found the Zillion spool has weight 13.4gBasseditor wrote: ↑Tue Jan 05, 2021 12:48 pmWill the Steez SV boost have the same spool as the Zillion SV Boost?
the Steez spool has 13.1g
Practically the same spools
So how are SV BOOST spools?

The gears are different.

Re: So how are SV BOOST spools?
^^^^ Your links list the JDM versions of both reels. I hope that's the case for the new USDM model, as well. In the past, there have been differences on various models from the same family.
Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.
Re: So how are SV BOOST spools?
Has anyone tried putting the new Boost spool into another reel for casting compatibility and performance? I just received the new Zillion from Amazon.co.jp and the boost spool fits in SS SV 103 and 105. Would it not work in those reels also? Sorry if its a dumb question, but before I gave it a shot I would ask.

Re: So how are SV BOOST spools?
I noticed when comparing my Alphas SV TW and Alphas AIR TW, the SV TW gears were toothed different than my AIR TW. The SV TW are brass vs aluminum from the AIR TW so, that is more of a variable than the Steez. The teeth are rounded more in the SV TW than the AIR. Bith are smooth. Havent uses the SV TW much so, cant speak on long term smoothness. SV has brass gears, aluminum gear sideplate and bearing supported pinion so...should be durable.

Re: So how are SV BOOST spools?
Certainly from the photos/videos I saw it is more a u-shaped gear tooth and a v-shaped one.

Re: So how are SV BOOST spools?
i don't have any initial tests except for yard casting but it does cast exceptionally well long distance /w very good control.

Re: So how are SV BOOST spools?
This page has a very good breakdown of the features, translation is actually pretty decent.....much better and way more accurate to that one video that was talked about on herey2k88 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 12, 2021 6:38 pmCertainly from the photos/videos I saw it is more a u-shaped gear tooth and a v-shaped one.

Re: So how are SV BOOST spools?
I think this sv BOOST can be swapped to standard sv brakes. But has anybody actually tried to swap BOOST parts?
A friend of mine says in his Steez ct is always too much brake, until hi adjusts Magforce to '2' and then it's way too little brake...
Re: So how are SV BOOST spools?
How does sv Boost brake actually work?
Is there any difference in inductor vs. standard sv inductor?
Or is the only difference between those two springs connected by plastic piece, resulting to progressive spring rate?

Re: So how are SV BOOST spools?
Just appears to be a dual rate spring to create only brief full extension of the inductor. Hard casting of SV spools has a tendency to fully extend the inductor throughout the entire flight of the bait and this is especially true when at 50% or so on the mag dial to prevent early line fluff from this hard casting. The dual rate spring addresses this by using a stiff spring to allow full extension and a soft spring to enable partial extension. It essentially shortens the time the inductor is fully extended in SV spools.

Re: So how are SV BOOST spools?
To add to this: the dual rate allows for some partial extension which is beneficial. Compare this to a single stiff spring like what is on the TD Zillion HLC spool and that spool can only be cast hard. Insufficient casting energy such as pitches, roll casts lob casts ect do not allow the inductor to extend and essentially don't brake at all. The TD Zillion HLC spool is basically unusable outside of placing the rod over your shoulder and casting as hard as you can. The softer spring in concert with the stiff spring in the boost spools allows for usable braking to occur at lower spool speeds and still have a distance tuned braking profile when hard casting.LowRange wrote: ↑Sun Apr 04, 2021 9:41 amJust appears to be a dual rate spring to create only brief full extension of the inductor.
