Every EcoSport fixture carries the 25-Year NXS Failsafe™ non-prorated warranty as standard — monitoring, alerting and redundancy coverage included. A 10-year non-prorated warranty is available as an option.

Six flagship platforms, one standard: the field stays lit, and the warranty means what it says.

The moment / what sports lighting is actually for
FRIDAY · 7:42 PM · THIRD QUARTER

Nobody thinks about the lights until they go out.

Stands full. Game tied. Then one pole goes dark and everything stops — the officials, the clock, the broadcast, the parents who drove an hour. On a conventional system, a single failed driver stays dark until someone can get a bucket truck to the pole. That's not a lighting problem. It's a Friday-night problem.

EcoSport was built around one question: what would it take for that to never happen?

Our fixtures were already built to last decades. NXS is what we added so that a single failed part never costs you a game.

7:42 PM — a driver fails.

Conventional system
  1. Section goes dark
  2. Officials stop play
  3. Someone schedules a bucket truck
  4. Dark until the truck arrives
EcoSport with NXS
  1. Backup driver takes over automatically
  2. Alert sent to your team
  3. Play continues
  4. Failed driver swapped from the ground cabinet, on your schedule
NXS Failsafe / the field never goes dark

A warranty is a promise. NXS is an architecture.

Every EcoSport platform is engineered so that a failing part is caught, swapped and reported before anyone in the stands notices.

Remote driver cabinet

Drivers live on the ground, not on the pole.

The part most likely to need service sits in an accessible cabinet with better thermal management — serviceable without a bucket truck.

Wireless monitoring

Driver health is watched continuously.

When something degrades or fails, your team gets an alert immediately — before the field looks dimmer.

Auto-failover

A backup driver takes over automatically.

No game delay, no dark section, no restrike wait. The game keeps going.

Because the failure is engineered out, the warranty can be non-prorated: 25 years standard under NXS Failsafe™, full replacement, no depreciation. A 10-year non-prorated warranty is available as an option.
The company / an EcoLite Holdings company

A manufacturer, not a distributor.

EcoSport is the sports lighting division of EcoLite Holdings, based in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. We build our own fixtures and sell through partnered rep agencies and distributors — we don't resell other brands. That means component-level control, factory-direct technical support, and a warranty backed by the people who built the fixture.

Why we build sports lighting

We spent years building industrial and commercial lighting before we built our first sports fixture. When we looked at what was going up on poles, we kept seeing the same tradeoff offered to buyers: pay for quality, or pay a price that made sense. We didn't think that tradeoff was necessary. So we built the fixture that removed it — and then we built the redundancy system that removed the other one.

What's inside / no corners cut on the things that matter

Built from parts you can look up.

Drivers

Spec-grade drivers

Mean Well, Inventronics, and Sosen across the line. The most common failure point in any LED fixture — so we use drivers rated 50K+ hours at full operating temperature.

LED chips

Osram & Lumileds

The same die used by premium-tier manufacturers, with documented lumen maintenance — not generic chips that quietly dim in year three.

Housing

Forged & cast aluminum

UV-stable finish, gasketed seals and stainless hardware. Built for decades outdoors, not a warranty period.

Every fixture

100% pressure-tested and rain-tested

Before it ships. Not a sample — every one.

Rooftop rack

7+ years, 24 hours a day, no failures

At a typical 1,600 hours a year of field use, that's the equivalent of more than 38 years in service.

Broadcast-ready

Photometrics measured, not estimated

Distribution curves on a goniophotometer; lumens and color in an integrating sphere.

How it works / what happens after you click

Are you in charge of the Lighting System on your fields? We make it easy for you:

Tell us about the field

Sport, size, poles (or none yet), and what's bothering you about the current lights. Five minutes.

Get a conceptual proposal

A night render of your actual venue, a lighting plan, and clear pricing — readable by a school board, not just an engineer.

Certify it

An EcoSport lighting engineer runs a full photometric study of your site. The certified proposal is what you sign.

Install & monitor

Fixtures ship from US stock. Poles, controls and installation can be handled turnkey. Then NXS watches the system for you.

What's in a conceptual proposal

  • A night render of your venue. Your field, your pole positions, your fixture count — not a generic example.
  • A lighting plan. Footcandle levels and uniformity across the playing surface, zone by zone.
  • A fixture schedule. Model, wattage, quantity, optics and mounting height for every pole.
  • Clear pricing. Fixtures — and, if you want them, poles, controls and installation — alongside a monthly figure your board can vote on.
  • The warranty in writing. What's covered under the standard 25-Year NXS Failsafe™ warranty, and the options available.

An EcoSport lighting engineer then certifies it with a full photometric study of your site. The certified proposal is what you sign.

Buying / three ways in

Good lighting shouldn't wait on a budget cycle.

Cooperative purchasing

Buy through TIPS

EcoLite Holdings is an awarded vendor on national TIPS contracts. Schools and public entities can purchase without running their own bid.

Financing

Spread it out

Every proposal can show a simple monthly payment alongside the project price, so the conversation with your board starts with a number they can say yes to.

Partners

Work with your rep

Prefer the lighting rep or contractor you already trust? EcoSport sells through partnered rep agencies and distributors nationwide.

Plain answers / what people ask us first

The questions you'd ask a rep, answered.

What does "non-prorated" actually mean?

If a fixture fails in year nine, you get a full replacement — not a credit shrunk by depreciation. Most warranties in this industry pro-rate; ours doesn't. Every EcoSport fixture carries the 25-Year NXS Failsafe™ non-prorated warranty as standard. A 10-year non-prorated warranty is available as an option.

What happens the moment a driver fails during a game?

The backup driver takes over automatically and your team gets an alert. Nobody in the stands notices. The failed driver is replaced from the ground-level cabinet afterward — no bucket truck, no game delay.

How fast can we get fixtures?

Standard configurations ship from US stock. Flagship platforms built to order with custom optics, mounting or controls carry a 60-day factory lead time — we'll tell you which applies before you commit.

Do you actually make these, or resell them?

We manufacture our own fixtures under EcoLite Holdings. That's why we can offer factory-direct support and stand behind the warranty ourselves.

Can you handle poles and installation too?

Yes. EcoSport projects can be delivered turnkey, including steel or concrete poles, controls and installation through our partnered providers.
