💻 Compute Module

The compute module is the brain of the unit — responsible for processing Bluetooth commands, managing the display, and executing timing logic. It runs lightweight firmware and connects to all other electronic components inside the shell.


📡 RF Antenna

A compact radio-frequency antenna is mounted onto the compute module and enables Bluetooth connectivity with the tinyLeague™ Hub app. This component ensures fast, reliable signal performance from several meters away.


🔋 10000mAh Rechargeable Battery Bank

The included battery bank powers the unit for a couple matches or full tournament days. It’s USB-rechargeable and secured within the body using a slide-lock enclosure.

  • 🔌 Battery Bank is rechargable/replaceable
  • 🔋 10,000mAh provides several hours of runtime on full brightness

🧱 ¾" NPT Flange (Mounting Port)

The ¾” NPT flange is a rugged, industry-standard threaded insert built directly into the bottom of the Founders Edition unit. This port allows you to securely mount your shot clock onto a variety of compatible stands — some even to be designed yourself!

Whether you're setting up courtside or centerfield, the flange makes it easy to get a stable, elevated view of the timer display in any environment.
