The Consumer Product Safety Commission and Oliva Cigars are recalling Nub, Series V, Cain, and Oliva branded Promotional Cigar Slim Lighters.  These lighters lack child-resistant mechanisms. Young children could ignite these units leading to fires, burns, and worse.


About 60,000 of these lighters were given away as promotional items by wholesalers and retailers in marketing campaigns and in cigar lounges from August 2022 through July 2024.


Do not keep these lighters around the house if you have children.  Dispose of these units safely.  These lighters were free and the manufacturer is not offering refunds.
