When a battery pack having an output voltage of 14.4 V that is connectable to an electric tool in a sliding manner is used as a power supply source for the electric tool that is connectable to a battery pack in an insertion manner and has a rated voltage of 12 V, the electric tool and the battery pack are connected to each other with an adaptor interposed therebetween. The adaptor has an FET that is switched at a predetermined duty of a predetermined frequency. The battery pack and the electric tool are connected or disconnected to or from each other by the switching operation, thereby dropping the output voltage of the battery pack. The voltage from the battery pack is detected. When the detected voltage is out of a predetermined value range, it is judged that the overcurrent or overdischarge has occurred. Then, the FET is turned off to stop the electric tool.

The invention provides a projector a lighting optical system, a micro-lens array, a shutter array, a liquid crystal light valve, a projection optical system, and a modulation control portion. The modulation control portion can control the shutter array and the liquid crystal light valve in response to levels of gray-scale of colors specified by input image signals. When the gray-scale value is 1% or less, time-interval control is effected in such a manner that 1% of light is allowed to pass through by the shutter array, while a fine gray-scale expression is achieved by the liquid crystal light valve. Also, when the gray-scale value is 0%, light is shut out completely by the shutter. When configured in this manner, it is possible to improve the reproducibility at darker levels of gray-scale and the contrast characteristics. Accordingly, the display characteristics of an image from a liquid crystal projector can be improved.
