Which ones does it cover?
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to stop using Jolnyus Flameless Candle Sets immediately because the products violate the mandatory standard for consumer products containing button cell or coin batteries. The lithium coin battery in the remote control can be accessed easily by children, posing an ingestion hazard. Additionally, the flameless candle sets and remote control do not have the warnings as required by Reese’s Law. When button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns, and death. CPSC issued a Notice of Violation to the seller, Jiandeshi Junjun Jiaju Yongpin Youxian Gongsi of China, doing business as, Jolnyus. Jolnyus has not agreed to offer an acceptable recall remedy to consumers. The flameless candle sets were sold online at Amazon.com from March 2024 through September 2025 for about $20. The LED flameless candles were sold in sets of two candles in ivory and measure about 6 inches tall by 3 inches wide. The flameless candle sets have “volnyus” printed on the package. CPSC is aware the firm may have also sold similar LED flameless candle sets in other colors, sizes, and set variations. These products were manufactured in China. CPSC urges consumers to stop using the LED flameless candle sets immediately and dispose of them. Do not sell or give away these hazardous LED flameless candle sets. Note: Button cell and coin batteries are hazardous. The battery in the remote controls should be disposed of or recycled following local hazardous waste procedures.
