The Consumer Product Safety Commission announced the recall of 175,000 Scripto Premium Torches.
The agency said the torch does not meet the mandatory safety standards for multipurpose lighters and can pose a burn or fire hazard.
The device has a four-position adjustable metal nozzle, an adjustable flame, hands-free operation lock. It comes in black and has a metal base with black velvet on the bottom. Users can find UPC number 0-70257-52226-6 on the back of the product box.
They were sold by Walmart and Home Depot in stores and online from November 2024 to August 2025 for about $15, the CPSC said.
