I'm not sure it needs to be harped on further, but it's just bearing buzz and vibration. It's the factory Zillion HD boost spool, and It's plenty audible even on a short flip of the wrist cast.

They sound like most of my Tats too.
Re: 22 Zillion TW HD
As a side note, it looks like Digitaka bumped up the prices on Zillion models a little in the last day or so.
Re: 22 Zillion TW HD
What is everyone's finding of the best method of paying? I hear that PP charges a hidden small percentage of the US Dollar/Yen conversion rate.

Re: 22 Zillion TW HD
Funny you should mention that … yes, they are stealing a bit of it. I picked up on it a week or two ago when I picked up a couple of Steez rods. I tried to circumvent it with paying by credit card but that didn’t work.

Re: 22 Zillion TW HD
Yep, sneaky PayPal, they end up charging about ~4.5% for their fees. I just made another order using my CC a day ago and no fees. I have my CC set up to text for fraud for any overseas transactions so I got the verification text immediately.
Re: 22 Zillion TW HD
I use an AMEX with Digitaka. No issues.
Based on AMEX's policy, I thought there was still going to be a small fee for the conversion, but I haven't seen any.

Re: 22 Zillion TW HD
If only Digitaka actually had anything in stock!!!
Amd PayPal for sure charges a hidden conversion fee!
I use my CC that offers 5% off any purchase online and avoid PP altogether.

Re: 22 Zillion TW HD
Well I put my HDs to the test hard today frogging, flipping and deep water T-rigs/jigs. Zero complaints or issues. I pulled one over 6lb out of a mat on the frog and the drag never slipped once. It seems like the more I use them the farther they cast. I think I found an equal to my 20 Metanium MGLs..... Maybe even better!

Good stuff man, hoping those new design brass gears are as tough as the OG Zillion gears.Dink Whisperer wrote: ↑Sat Jul 30, 2022 6:25 pmWell I put my HDs to the test hard today frogging, flipping and deep water T-rigs/jigs.

Yes sir! I have high hopes for these. I didn't think there was anything as smooth as micromodule but these are smoother.dragon1 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 30, 2022 8:15 pmGood stuff man, hoping those new design brass gears are as tough as the OG Zillion gears.Dink Whisperer wrote: ↑Sat Jul 30, 2022 6:25 pmWell I put my HDs to the test hard today frogging, flipping and deep water T-rigs/jigs.

Of course Digitaka has them all back in stock except the one I want.
