The Varivas Max Power I use PE 1.5 = 28.6lb and the Varivas Bass PE 0.8 = 16.7lb. The full timeline is I had a Vanquish with SSV2 10lb, then Sufix 832 10lb, then Varivas Bass PE 0.6, then Varivas Bass PE 0.8. Then I swapped to a Twin Power with Varivas Max Power PE 1.5 to get back to something closer to American 10lb braid that I was used to aka 0.20mm diamater braid. It could be lack of memory or the combo of Twin Power + Varivas Max Power PE 1.5, but I overall felt like it was a bit easier to reel in fish. I plan to spool the Vanquish with the same PE 1.5 to see how each reel compares to figure out where I want them to live. I think it’s going to come down to low start up inertia/lightweight vs the “power” of the TP.
