Under English law, this can lead to a so-called battle of the forms , as there cannot be two sets of terms for one contract.

Handling heat the modern way: Panasonic Industry introduces new type of its Graphite Thermal Interface Material (TIM) for efficient thermal dissipation on power modules
MUNICH, DECEMBER 2020
Handling heat is a major challenge when operating power modules in demanding and even harsh industrial or automotive contexts.
Mounted on dedicated heat sinks, heat dissipation is traditionally achieved with a particular layer of grease – that, of course, has to be replaced from time to time. A labor-intensive frequent task, next to the fact that grease naturally doesn’t stay only where it is applied. That, in turn, counteracts an effective thermal dissipation.
