What happened

Luminosities/Windflame is recalling OZOfire™ pourable gel fuel sold in one-quart clear plastic bottles because the fuel can ignite unexpectedly and splatter when poured into firepots that are still burning. This can happen if consumers don't notice a flame is still present in the firepot. When the fuel splatters and ignites, it can cause fires and severe burns to people nearby, potentially resulting in fatal injuries.

According to the recall notice, consumers should immediately stop using this pourable gel fuel in firepots and return all bottles to the retailer where they purchased the fuel to receive a full refund.
