This product uses a contactless charging system and has no metallic contact on the product body, giving it a nice exterior appearance. The “eneloop” battery combines the user-friendly benefits of dry cell batteries by coming “pre-charged” with the economic and environmental benefits of rechargeable batteries by being rechargeable up to 1,000 times and recyclable once it reaches the end of its life…

The GL series is sufficiently photostable to withstand even light in the blue spectrum that is of high-power and high spectral density. The GL series of wave plates demonstrate excellent photostability, exhibiting no change in properties even when irradiated for more than 1,000 hours with blue wavelength light having a power density on the order of 1 W/mm2. Unachievable with conventional technology, this level of photostability was enabled by Epson Toyocom’s original GL bonding technology for joining quartz plates by means of a glass-like layer. While the characteristics of these products will enable them to contribute to faster Blu-ray Disc drives with larger storage capacities, Epson Toyocom also plans to use GL bonding technology to develop a lineup of optical devices for projectors and other products that require high photostability and reliability…
