The Divesoft reel offers a rugged modular design that allows you to select the length of line you desire by using a 'spool spacer' to allow for large volume of line or choose the standard size for a more traditional length. This is an expedition grade product.

Line length specifications on reels are approximate and the diver should confirm actual length before relying on a precise distance measurement.

The Divesoft reel offers a rugged modular design that allows you to select the length of line you desire by using a 'spool spacer' to allow for large volume of line or choose the standard size for a more traditional length. The included center spool spacing bar will allow three (3) different widths of the spool {330 ft | 100 m}, {500 ft | 150 m} and {900 ft | 275 m} settings using 1.6 mm or 1.7 mm diameter line (approximately #18 or #21 gauge} In addition to an empty reel with no line at all if you wish to spool up your own selection of line, the reel is available from the factory with two pre-load options of either {492 ft | 150 m} OR {656 ft | 200 m} of White 1.6 mm (approximately #18 gauge) Divesoft Polyethersulfone (PES) line.This reel does not include a double end snap or bolt snap, sold separately in a range of styles and sizes.

In addition to the factory Polyethersulfone (PES) line loads, the reel is available without line (i.e. empty) at very attractive price and we are offering an additional savings to load this reel with your choice of DGX Hi-Viz Polyester or DGX Ultra-Viz Retroflective line. The reel has been very popular when loaded with our top selling DGX Hi-Viz Polyester Line in Blaze Orange.

This is an expedition grade product; the spool is made of quality Delrin material to eliminate warping with an Aluminum handle for lightweight durability. The knurled stainless steel lockdown screw allows for easy one touch control even in cold water with dry gloves on. There is a built-in rubber stopper at the end of the lockdown screw that is aligned along the narrow end of the spool to offer braking and stopping (tension control) as needed. Machined with very tight tolerances to prevent line jams while deploying even with the thinnest line options. The winding knob is longer than most to fit any size hand and rotates for easy use, and also has a deep groove for better grip.

NOTE: A 3mm Allen wrench as well as #0 and #2 Phillips screwdriver are required for disassembly and assembly of the reel. If you have a LOT of line to load, the task will seem quick and easy if you add an optional Divesoft Line Winder.

Best for price and value. Got this reel on a recommendation and I could not be happier with the purchase. Well built, sturdy, handles well underwater, and significantly better than other brands I have used in the past. I like that is compact and has good buoyancy characteristics. The hi-viz line with 500 feet is a plus in a reel that is smaller than others I have used with less line. I strongly recommend as a primary reel for dives in any overhead environment, whether caves or wrecks. As a matter of fact I am considering getting another one to use as a safety reel. I only wish it would include a bolt snap, which probably would not be hard to add. Maybe DGX would consider including one as an option when purchasing. I had an extra that I could use. but it was the medium size. If you need one I recommend getting the DGX large size.

Recently lost my Light Monkey reel, and I'm a big fan of the high-viz dacron line. Went to order another LM, but the LM with high-viz was out-of-stock and I still had dives scheduled for this season and couldn't wait 6 weeks for re-stocking. So spoke with staff about other options and at the end of the conversation decided upon the DiveSoft modular reel, which is a new addition to their line of products. The reel is a solid piece of equipment that has a nice feel to it. It's operation is very smooth, so much so that it took a few minutes to get use to it. Decided to practice at a quarry with it and ran out the full 500 ft. While reeling in the line, it's operation is noticeably smoother than other reels I've used (Hollis, Light Monkey, Dive RIte) with less fatigue. How it will hold up over time, I can't say, but based upon my impression I think it will stand the test of time as long as it's take care of.

Great product, I picked up Light Monkey first but then exchanged for this one. The handle is aluminum and the wheel is adjustable for higher capacity, very solid easy to work with with dry gloves. I like it better then Halcyon or Light Monkey. The screw has a rubber buffer to slow down the line if needed - the biggest drawback to this product I see is tightening proprietary screw, if you loose it. Nearly impossible to jam the line, be sure to get Light Monkey line stopper for it.
