Discontinuation of Hot Mirror HM-VS-1500, Heat Buster and Hot Mirror 101, 102 Series

Back in 2021, we announced that one of our cut-to-order partners supplied Hot Mirror products was headed toward obsolescence and that once the on-hand supply was exhausted, it would be discontinued. We regret that we have now reached the point where our supply has been depleted.

We know that many customers chose the HM-VS-1500 as a convenient cut to order solution. We are pleased to say that we continue to offer a variety of solutions that while not “exact” replacements of this product, can still provide you with the essential performance attributes required by your application and several available on a cut-to-order basis with no LOT charge.

Our Applications Engineers are available to provide you with selection assistance for some of the alternatives that we offer.
