Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
PROMISE brand lighters (model BN201-F12, EAN 6926095582013) are being recalled because they lack sufficient flaring resistance and allow gas to evaporate outside the lighter when lit and the ignition button is pressed. These defects create a burn hazard and mean the product does not meet the European safety standard EN ISO 9994, despite having proper warnings and instructions attached.
The distributor is voluntarily withdrawing the product from the market. The source does not specify what actions consumers should take regarding lighters they already own.
