A: Normal production time for in-house orders is 3-5 business days.  We can RUSH your order in as little as 24-48 hours.  Contact us and we will do everything we can to get the job done.

Listed production times for printed products refer to the number of business days or weeks in production after all artwork has been approved. We cannot begin production until artwork has been approved. It should be expected for your order to be in production for the full time listed (i.e. 5 Days, 5 Weeks, or 12 Weeks). When placing your order, it is very important that you are available to approve the artwork so that we can begin production without delay, especially on orders with tight deadlines (our specialty!!)

Q: How long do your products last and can you turn them on and off?

 

A: For the most part, battery life on our items ranges between 3 – 12 hours of continuous use with some exceptions lasting as long as 18 – 24 hours or as little as 1-2 hours. Battery life will vary from item to item so if your need is specific, it is best to inquire with our service staff to make sure the item of interest will meet your need. Good news is that almost all of our items can be turned on and off to preserve battery life. The batteries are replaceable on many of our products as well and we do sell extra batteries for them.  Chemical Glow items cannot be turned on and off.  Please check each product's details to see if they can be turned on and off.
