I bought a 300 EJ from the tackle warehouse pre-xmas sale.  I'll be using it to throw big swimbaits so I'd really prefer to have the double paddle handle.  Anybody know if the power handle is interchangeable with the handle from the 300e?

Art I'm not 100% sure but I believe so. I fish lefty and like the power handle. Shimano doesn't make the EJ model in lefty so the practice for switching out is to buy a Shimano power handle and tap it for a screw for the handle nut cover. I think that the rectangular slot is the same but the presence of the screw hole is less universal. When mine was converted the reel repairman used a big plastic handle nut cap rather than the one which came with the reel. This created an empty space which was a salt water trap. The trapped salt water corroded my power handle ruining it. So I would like to buy your power handle if it available after you switch.

The 300e handle will fit,I was told this by the former Waltons pond
My biggest worry is that my wife(when I'm dead)will sell my fishing gear for what I said I paid for it

Cool thanks guys.  One other option I think I might try is switching the ej power handle with the double paddle on my calcutta 400.  Amos I'll let you know if I get rid of it.

I have the Lefty model and put a single power handle on it, so it does work
