The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

  1. First aid

    Made May 22, 2017, sent to the company Jun 22, 2017, published by CPSC Jul 7, 2017

    The product, in the report: this is a self igniting torch with a piezo electric igniter that has a hole in the handle where the gas comes out.

    I was using a Sure Fire T-110 self igniting torch and it caught fire in my hand. A flame shot out of the hole on the handle and the whole thing started on fire. I threw it because i did not know if the tank would explode and it started a secondary fire.
