Ronson Tech Torch Recalled Over Fire Hazard

“The Ronson Tech Torch can continue to produce a flame after the activation trigger is released into the off position, posing a fire hazard,” CPSC said.
The recalled torches were sold online and at Wal-Mart, Ace Hardware, and other stores nationwide from February 2010 through July 2019 for between $30 and $40.
