1. Recall Summary

Prestige Import Group, of Deerfield, Florida, is recalling approximately 4,300 Prestige-branded metal butane torch lighters. The recall involves two models: the Supernova and the Typhoon. The recall was initiated because the lighters violate the mandatory federal safety standard for cigarette lighters. Specifically, the lighters lack the required child-resistant mechanism, which poses a risk of serious injury or death from fire and burn hazards. Additionally, the lighters failed to meet the pre-market lighter submission requirement needed to demonstrate that they feature child-resistant mechanisms and to ensure their safety and compliance with U.S. regulations. No injuries have been reported in connection with this recall.

2. Affected Products

The affected products are Prestige-branded metal butane torch lighters in two models:

– Supernova Lighters: Available in gray and black. These lighters have a rugged, industrial look, a textured grip with a mesh-like metal panel on the side featuring three horizontal bands, and a cap at the top of the flame valve.
– Typhoon Lighters: Available in silver, black, and black/silver. These lighters have a rectangular shape with a metal and matte finish, an ignition trigger 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.

3. Hazard Information
