Hyperfuels Methanol and Ethanol Fuel Containers
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
Why this is on The Recall Registry: This is a consumable product recalled for what is inside it. It was found to contain a drug or chemical that is not on the label. That is different from an allergen or a contamination scare: anyone taking it has been taking a substance nobody prescribed, in an unknown dose, and it can interact with medication they are already on. Follow the agency notice rather than judging it by how the product looks.
What’s wrong
The recalled fuel containers violate the mandatory safety standards for portable fuel containers because they lack flame mitigation devices required under the Portable Fuel Container Safety Act, posing a deadly flame jetting hazard. Furthermore, the methanol container is not child-resistant as required under the Poison Prevention Packaging Act, posing a risk of serious injury or death if the contents are swallowed by young children. The containers also do not comply with the labeling requirements of the Federal Hazardous Substances Act.
The Recall Registry rates this serious — The agency describes a risk of serious injury or death.
