1. Recall Summary

Prestige Import Group, of Deerfield, Florida, is recalling two models of Prestige-branded metal butane torch lighters. The recall involves the Supernova and Typhoon lighters. The recall was initiated because the lighters violate the mandatory federal safety standard for cigarette lighters. The lighters do not have the required child-resistant mechanism, and they failed to meet the pre-market lighter submission requirement needed to demonstrate that the lighters feature child-resistant mechanisms and ensure their safety and compliance with U.S. regulations. No injuries have been reported in connection with this recall.

2. Affected Products

The recall involves approximately 4,300 units of two Prestige-branded metal butane torch lighters.

– Typhoon Lighters: These are rectangular lighters available in silver, black, and black/silver color options. They have a metal and matte finish, with the ignition trigger located on the side and a cap on top of the flame valve.

The lighters were sold at small independent stores nationwide and online at prestigeimportgroup.com from October 2023 through March 2026 for between $7 and $10. The lighters were manufactured in China.
