In the CPSC's words
- Description
- This recall involves Royal Oak flame saber lighters. The lighters are red with a black-and-gray checkered grip and have a hands-free operation lock. The lighter bears the warning labels, "DANGER: Extremely Flammable, Content Under Pressure" and "WARNING: Only store in locked position" on the sides of the lighter. The "Royal Oak" logo is printed on the front of lighter.
- Hazard
- The recalled lighters violate the mandatory standard for multipurpose lighters because they do not have the required child-resistant mechanisms, posing a risk of serious injury or death from fire and burn hazards. The lighters also violate the labeling requirements under the Federal Hazardous Substances Act by missing required safety information.
- Remedy
- Consumers should stop using the recalled lighters immediately and contact Royal Oak for a full refund. Consumers will be given instructions on how to destroy the device and submit proof of destruction to receive a refund.
