FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
*2 Laser & LED hybrid light source projector volumes from January to December 2014, according to Futuresource Consulting Ltd. The XJ-V2 will be introduced at a price that is lower than the cost of a conventional mercury lamp projector of an equivalent brightness plus one replacement lamp.*3 Furthermore, the Casio SSI light source – which uses both a laser and a LED - in the XJ-V2 has a lifespan of up to 20,000 hours, eliminating the need for lamp replacements, and offering electricity consumption that is approximately half that of a mercury lamp projector.*4 Given these benefits, the total cost of ownership for the XJ-V2 is a more viable option compared to a mercury lamp projector.*5 Dependable dust-resistant design
Casio improved the dust resistance of the XJ-V2 by structuring the internal components into three blocks to shield the optical block from dust. This helps ensure that dust does not lower projection brightness, enabling the XJ-V2 to operate dependably for a long time. Additionally, the new EcoLite reaches maximum brightness in as fast as five seconds from the time the power is switched on. It can immediately power off with just a touch of the button and then be used again right away when powered back on without the need for a cool-down period. The EcoLite line including the XJ-V2 is manufactured in Japan by Yamagata Casio Co., Ltd., a Casio Group manufacturing subsidiary. By applying the advanced production technologies it has developed over the years, Yamagata Casio consistently achieves an exceptionally high level of product quality. For more information on Casio’s full portfolio of products, please visit www.CasioLampFree.com. *3 Based on an estimate by Casio, the price is lower than the combined price of a conventional 3000 lumen mercury lamp projector
(with a lamp included) and one replacement lamp.
*4 Based on an estimate by Casio, electricity consumption is approximately half of a conventional 3000 lumen mercury lamp projector.
*5 Based on an estimate by Casio, TCO over a five-year period is lower than that of a conventional 3000 lumen mercury lamp projector. XJ-V2 Main Specifications
