The BRS was discontinued June 1st, 2020. The replacement, the new LiteCom FRS Headset, will not work with BRS frequencies. For BRS headset and radio users, two Peltor options remain. The Litecom Plus Headset contains the 8 BRS frequencies in channels 23-30, making it backwards compatible; it is a little more expensive and offers a few more features. Alternatively, the Litecom Pro III Headset can be programmed to operate on the 8 BRS frequencies.
3M Peltor LiteCom BRS 2-Way Communications Electronic Ear Muffs feature a built-in UHF two way radio, a noise canceling boom mic, dual action, push to talk or voice activated (VOX) operation and 8 preset BRS frequency channels with 38 subchannels. Designed to integrate into your existing BRS 2-way radio system, LiteCom BRS offers a low-cost alternative to other high noise 2-way radio communications systems.
