BRS and BULin Liquid Fuel Bottles Recalled for Unsafe Closures

BRS and BULin portable liquid fuel bottles sold on Amazon have non-child-resistant closures that violate federal safety law, posing risks of burns and poisoning to children. Consumers should stop using them and contact the seller for disposal and refund instructions.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The closures violate child-resistant requirements under the Children's Gasoline Burn Prevention Act, creating a direct risk of serious injury (burns and poisoning) to children. Although no injuries have been reported, this qualifies as a risk-of-harm product under the rubric where injury has not yet occurred.

Plain-English summary

This recall involves BRS and BULin portable liquid fuel bottles sold on Amazon from January 2023 through December 2023. The BRS bottle is orange with a black cap, while the BULin bottle is red with a red cap. Both were sold only in 1000mL size. About 290 units were sold for between $10 and $13.

The closures for these fuel bottles do not meet the child-resistant requirements established under the Children's Gasoline Burn Prevention Act (CGBPA). Non-compliant closures pose a risk of burns and poisoning to children who may gain access to and open these containers.

Consumers who purchased these bottles should immediately stop using them and place them out of reach of children. To dispose of the product safely and receive a full refund, contact Tentock at [email protected] or through their Amazon seller profile.
