The product
This recall involves Jobon butane torch lighters. The lighters have a side ignition trigger and hands-free operation lock. The lighters come in gray/brown, gold/black and camouflage print. "JOBON" is printed on the side of the lighter.
What can happen
The lighters violate the mandatory safety 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. In addition, the lighters failed to meet the pre-market lighter submission requirement needed to demonstrate that the lighters feature child-resistant mechanisms and ensuring their safety and compliance with U.S. regulations.
The fix
Consumers should stop using the recalled lighters immediately and contact Jobon Official Store for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to write "RECALLED" in permanent marker on the lighter, submerge it in water in a bowl and send a photo of the marked and submerged lighter to wzzhongbang@yeah.net. Consumers should then dispose of the recalled product in accordance with state and local waste disposal procedures.
