No one hurt Made Jul 18, 2011, published by CPSC Aug 9, 2011
The product, in the report: small lighter about 2 inches high. Decal “Mini match”
I purchased MiniMatch butane lighters at a CVS store on July 16, 2011 The flame that shoots out of the lighter is hugh. At the lowest setting it was about 2 inches high and at the High setting about 3 inches high. This product is from Calico Brands, Inc. Ontario, California 91761
I think this is unsafe for a cigarette lighter the flame is too high I could have burned my nose or eyebrows if I wasn’t diligent.
