Lee High Temp Gel

[Sean]

Hi....

Does anyone know what the real story is from Lee...????

Apparently High Temp gel has been backordered since SEPTEMBER!!?!?!

I don't know anything about the issue, but would suspect a manufacturing difficulty if it's been that long. You might try giving them a shoutout on their contact form.

Sean, did you ever find anything more about this?

From Production Advantage's twitter feed:

Lee Filters report production problems w/High Temp color. Consider adding Lee Heat Shield and/or a color extender for HT apps. We can help!

Consider buying the equivalent in Rosco. It still requires a double gel holder as the heat shield and the color gel must have some physical seteration.

And as FWIW, I never found that the so-called Lee Hi-Temp outlasted the regular Lee or any of the Rosco, Apollo or GAM products. My take was it was a gimmick to copy a lot of the more popular Rosco line and that they needed a new name. Thus often times, if there's a matching Rosco version, I use that.

Late reply, but I have to disagree wit ST, as i have found, especially in older 360Q's that the HT colors do seem to last a bit longer. Your mileage may bary.
