Commercial terms
Commercial terms are usually agreed in three parts: a deposit on confirmation, a balance before shipment and a stated validity window.
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.

|---|---|---|
| Carton (110 units) | Tier 1 | 30-45 days |
| Pallet (710 units) | Tier 2 | 21-30 days |
| Container (8736 units) | Tier 3 | 14-21 days |

Can several models be mixed in one shipment?
Yes, mixing models and flavours within a carton or pallet is common and usually helps first time buyers test demand.

A short quarterly review of these points will keep the Flux 5 range healthy without consuming the week.
