New Hampshire scoreboard orders split between two places: the baseball diamond and the gym. Our sales and shipping record for the state, the same one printed city by city on our New Hampshire page, puts an outdoor baseball and softball model, the LX1030, level with an indoor basketball model, the LX2350, at the top. The LX2655 follows, and two more baseball sizes, the LX1060 and the LX1050, complete the five most-shipped models.

I wrote this guide for athletic directors, recreation departments and league organizers weighing a purchase. Each featured model is described only from its own spec sheet, and every count comes from the record as printed. The guide also connects the gym to the current NFHS bonus rule and the diamond to the pitch count policies set by state associations and Little League. The record shows what shipped. It does not show why a buyer chose a model or what they paid. Those limits matter, because they keep the comparison honest.

What does Electro-Mech's New Hampshire sales and shipping record show?

Our New Hampshire record holds 211 records across 82 cities and towns, shipped from 1999 to 2025, and places the state twenty-second of fifty by units shipped.

Before using the record to shortlist a scoreboard, I would read it in three passes:

1. Find your sport in the sport counts below.
2. Note which models carry the most records for that sport.
3. Open each model's own spec sheet before comparing size, weight or power.

Our data, from the state sales and shipping record as of its 2026-09-14 snapshot, splits the record by sport as follows. Baseball leads with 104 records, and basketball follows with 74.

The same record lists 40 distinct models, and five of them lead the count.

Counts follow each model's LX equivalent, meaning every variant of one model is filed under that model. The variants 2350, 2350-C and LX2350, for example, all count as the LX2350. Football, soccer and hockey sit far lower on the list, so a buyer comparing our football scoreboards will find fewer New Hampshire entries to look at than a baseball or basketball buyer will.

The common assumption is that a state count measures scoreboards in service today. Our record does not. It lists what we sold and shipped, one row per organization, model and city, and it is silent on whether a scoreboard is installed, still running, what it replaced or what it cost.

According to the NCES Digest State Dashboard, New Hampshire had 502 public schools in 2022. A comparison of 3 sources, our state record, our sales and shipping record for the LX1030 and the NCES dashboard, points to one reading rule: a shipment count describes orders, not school buildings. In practice, the record tells you which models your peers ordered. It does not tell you which gym or field still uses one.

Which two scoreboards share first place in the New Hampshire record?

The two leaders cover opposite venues: the LX1030 is an outdoor 8 ft x 4 ft baseball and softball scoreboard, and the LX2350 is an indoor basketball display for the gym.

Neither model can stand in for the other. Our data, from the LX1030 spec sheet, lists an aluminum cabinet with 18-inch digits for Runs and Inning and 4-inch bullet indicators for Ball, Strike and Out, lit in amber or red. The display circuits are conformal coated for outdoor use, and mounting hardware for two posts is standard. The model page describes the layout as one that has been gaining popularity since its debut several years ago, and it notes that the "MM" console is included in the package.

Our review of the LX2350 spec sheet shows a different kind of display: an indoor 9 ft x 3 ft aluminum cabinet with 12-inch digits for Points and the Period Clock, a 9-inch Period digit, and 3-inch Bonus and Possession indicators. The sheet labels it Basketball / Multi-Sport. Yet the model page points to those built-in indicators as the sign that the LX2350 is made for basketball. Wall mounting hardware and an internal horn are standard, and a data output port on the cabinet supports daisy chaining additional displays.

The tie lines up with how New Hampshire high schools built their sports programs. Fair Funding NH, working from NH Interscholastic Athletic Association listings, found that in 2020-21 boys' basketball and baseball were the only teams fielded by all 79 high schools. The same analysis observed that a small high school may have only one winter sport, typically basketball. Private schools widen the pool further, since NCES counted 190 private schools in the state in 2021.

The record does not say which of its buyers are schools. Still, the parallel is hard to miss. A diamond and a gym ask different things of a scoreboard. A program that plays both sports needs one display built for two posts outdoors and another built for a wall indoors, and the two leaders fill exactly those roles. For the indoor half of that pairing, the LX2350 is one option among our basketball scoreboards, and its model page notes that the uncluttered layout does not look jumbled when ID panels are added for sponsors.

Where can a buyer check the New Hampshire record and the model documents?

Every record is listed by city on Electro-Mech's New Hampshire state page, and each model discussed here has its own published model page and spec sheet.

Our data follows one counting rule: one row per organization, model and city. The counts in this article are the ones the state page prints. Any reader can check them there, city by city. The page lists what was shipped to each place; it is not a ranking of towns, and I have not used it as one.

The model documents work the same way. The LX2655 has a model page and a spec sheet, and the spec sheet behind this article carries the revision mark Rev 2.0.2017.06.08. The LX2655-ETN has a separate spec sheet of its own. Before comparing two models side by side, I would confirm with our support team that both documents are the current revision.

How does the LX2655 compare with the LX2350 for a New Hampshire gym?

The LX2655 is the bigger, multi-sport choice: a 9 ft x 5 ft cabinet with removable caption plates for volleyball and wrestling, beside the basic LX2350.

Baseball leads the record's sport split, yet basketball displays take two of the top three model spots. The LX2350 shares first place, and the LX2655 follows in third. Our data, from the LX2655 model page, calls it our most popular model for basketball, and many of our indoor designs are variations on its layout. In New Hampshire, the basic model edges it, contrary to that company-wide standing. The record does not say why buyers chose one over the other.

Our review of the two spec sheets shows where they part ways, figure by figure.

The heavier LX2655 carries an extra caption height, and the lower half of its face is where the removable plates go. It keeps the same Points and Period Clock digit height as the LX2350 and sets every other digit at 9 inches. Its spec sheet lists a full-sized 37-key control console with LCD display and fifty programmable brightness levels as standard equipment. The LX2655-ETN cutsheet confirms that console and those brightness levels on the Electronic Team Names version, with a junction box and patch cable for hardwired installations.

Both models carry Bonus indicators, and the high school rule behind them has changed. Under NFHS Rule 4-8-1, in force since the 2023-24 season, two free throws follow every common foul once the opponent commits five fouls in a quarter, and team fouls reset at the end of each quarter. The one-and-one is gone. Table crews now track the bonus by quarter, whichever model they run.

My advice follows the gym's calendar. Where volleyball matches or wrestling meets share the floor, I would start with the LX2655, since its caption plates relabel the lower half of the display for those events. Where basketball carries the season, the lighter LX2350 covers the basics. Either way, our scoreboard manuals are worth reading before the order goes in.

Each row in our New Hampshire record is one organization, model and city. Read against its own spec sheet, each of the three leading models carries the label below:

LX1030 = Outdoor | Baseball / Softball
LX2350 = Indoor  | Basketball / Multi-Sport
LX2655 = Indoor  | Basketball, Volleyball / Wrestling

Across these three spec sheets, the first digit follows the sport: the model starting with 1 is baseball, and the two starting with 2 are basketball. I would still confirm any other model on its own spec sheet. The number alone is a hint, not a specification.

Which baseball scoreboard sizes lead the New Hampshire record?

Three of the top five New Hampshire models are outdoor baseball sizes, with the LX1030 sliding between the LX1050 and LX1060 to suit little leagues and high schools.

Basketball's place near the top rests on two indoor models. Baseball's lead rests on three outdoor sizes. Our data, from the LX1030 model page, calls the LX1050 and LX1060 our venerable models and sets the LX1030 between them in size. The record holds orders for all three. A buyer who finds one size wrong for a field has a neighbor on either side, and both neighbors are models New Hampshire buyers have ordered.

Our review of the LX1030 spec sheet adds the figures a baseball buyer weighs once size is settled:

• Weight: 113 lb for the full cabinet.
• Captions: 6-inch caption height, with accents in 2.4 mil cast vinyl.
• Electrical: 1.1 amps at 120 VAC.
• Control: a simplified 15-key control console as standard, with a full-sized 37-key console with LCD display as an option.
• Connection: up to 1,000 feet of data cable for hardwired installations, or the ScoreLink Wireless RF modem system, both listed as options.
• Finish: a choice of 18 standard paint colors, with custom paint and a team name in place of HOME as options.

Every one of those figures belongs to the LX1030 alone. I would read the LX1050 and LX1060 spec sheets side by side with this one before settling on the middle size, because a neighbor's figures never carry over.

Pitch counts now shape how high school and Little League pitchers are used. Since 2016, NFHS Rule 6-2-6 has required each state association to set its own pitching restriction policy based on the number of pitches thrown in a game, with a required rest period between appearances. Little League publishes its own pitch count breakdowns by league age, with days-of-rest thresholds for each division of play. The limits differ by state and by age. The governing body sets the numbers, not the scoreboard.

For a New Hampshire buyer, that means two rulebooks can meet on the same diamond. A high school game answers to the state association's policy, while a Little League game follows Little League's own tables. I would name every program that will use the field in the first conversation with our team, so the display and console are chosen for the games that will actually be played there. Ball, Strike and Out still matter on every pitch; the policy decides how many pitches a young arm may throw.

How should a New Hampshire school or rec league plan a scoreboard purchase on a tight budget?

Match the model to the venue first, read that model's own spec sheet, and request a quote before cutting size to fit the budget.

With the gym and the diamond covered, the record becomes a buying question, and budget sits at the center of it. New Hampshire schools run small and have been getting smaller. Publicschoolreview.com puts the average public school at approximately 326 students for 2026-27, against 2,977 at the largest public school in the state. The same dataset shows average school size peaking at 439 in 2003 and falling to 336 by 2023. Enrollment does not set the size of a scoreboard, however. The venue does.

A tight budget tempts some programs to keep making do. One workaround shared among basketball coaches uses large paper easels numbered from 2 up and flipped as points are scored, with whiteboard easels for the latest foul number and player. Easels cost little, but they ask a volunteer to keep the count by hand. Paper shows a score. It does not keep time. A scoreboard's first job is to keep accurate information, including the clock, in front of players and officials; spectators come second.

For a school, district or recreation department planning a purchase, I would work through three steps in order:

1. Size for the venue. Start from the farthest seat that needs to read the scoreboard, not from the enrollment. A larger digit always costs more, so the mistake to avoid is a scoreboard too small for its venue, chosen to save money.
2. Name the options up front. ID panels, Electronic Team Names, a full-sized console and ScoreLink wireless control appear on the spec sheets as options for specific models. Each has its own line, and a variant such as an ETN model carries its own electrical figure. Put the ones you want in the first request.
3. Ask for a quote. The record lists what shipped and carries no prices. The Electro-Mech team prices the exact model, variant and options a buyer names.

A tight budget is real, and I take it seriously. Spend it on the right size for the venue. Shrinking the scoreboard until the number fits saves money once and costs readability at every game after.

New Hampshire buys scoreboards for two venues before any other: the baseball diamond and the basketball gym. Across the 211 records in our New Hampshire sales and shipping record, an outdoor baseball model and an indoor basketball model share first place. That tie should set the order of a buyer's decisions. Pick the sport first, then the model, then the options.

The rulebooks point the same way. Basketball's bonus now runs by the quarter, and every high school baseball program answers to a pitch-count policy its state association sets. The right model, therefore, is the one whose own spec sheet carries what your officials track. In my judgment, the safest comparison starts with that spec sheet, read line by line, rather than with a catalog photo.

The record tells you what shipped. It cannot tell you what your venue needs. Send the Electro-Mech team your sports, your venue and your season, and request a quote on the model that fits.
