Frequently Asked Questions

 

Is Tweener compatible with every tennis court configuration?

The solution is compatible with most single and double configurations, compliant with the AFNOR NF P90-110 2016/07 standard (single court dimension: 120 ft x 60-foot, fence on all 4 sides of the ground, posts aligned with a minimum of 8 ft height, 2.5-3-inch diameter, and 13 feet maximum spaced). To validate the conformity of the tennis court with the solution, a qualification sheet is transmitted for each lighting project. This sheet, along with some photos of the court, allows to identify any particularities requiring adjustments (wall on one side, opening on one side, etc.). Our team accompanies you and advises you throughout your project.

Can we light 2 courts with one Tweener?

The Double Tweener solution was developed to light 2 tennis courts at the same time (The 2 courts must be contiguous in a single grid enclosure). Double Tweener is particularly suitable for educational trays (leisure practice or training). Double Tweener is 250 lux.

Is it possible to personalize the color of Tweener modules?

The standard color of the Tweener kit is green (RAL 6005). Other colors are available as an option. Additional deadlines / costs are expected.

Can we use Tweener solution to light INDOOR tennis courts?

Tweener is exclusively dedicated to outdoor tennis courts. With more than 400 lighted tennis courts (indoor and outdoor), the NLX team can offer you a lighting solution adapted to your project.

 

Do you have licensed installers?

The installation of the light bars on the fence can be done by 2 people with moderate skill set with simple tools. The electrical work to supply the system would have to be performed by a licensed electrician. Our sister company, Fast Dry Courts, can install the system at any location in their territory (Florida). Otherwise, the installation can be carried out by an installation partner trained by our teams. We can offer installation assistance to support municipal technical services or a local installation team.

How long does it take to install the solution on a court?

A Tweener system can be installed in as little as 7 hours on a single or double court (2 to 3 people) if the court(s) meet the required qualifications and the fencing structure is sound and in place.

Is the system compatible with ignition systems (switch, timer, coin mechanism, remotely controlled)?

Yes.

 

What is the power consumption of Tweener?

Electrical costs are greatly reduced with Tweener! 1800W only to illuminate 1 court, the power consumption of a vacuum cleaner (2200 W for the double version)! Please find an annual operating cost comparison below:

What is the lifetime of the system?

What happens if an LED fails within a module?

No LED failure has been observed on more than 400 Tweener projects. In the event of a malfunction, the module in which the LED is located is replaced, and the other modules operate normally.

Are the modules shock, dust, and fog resistant?

The highly resistant polycarbonate sheet protects the LEDs against impact (bullet resistance index IK08). It is anti-UV treated (no change in color over time). Evacuation of fogging is possible thanks to a small gap between the sheets. The optical modules benefit from total protection against dust (IP 65).

Are the lights dimmable?

Yes. The lights can be dimmed manually in the Tweener power supply box.
