I have recently purchased 2 of these lighters( Liberty lite lighter)and they have literally blown up! They were purchased from Cox's Smoker's in Mt Washington Ky! These lighters are very dangerous! When they blew up shards of plastic went everywhere!

I used a BIC lighter to light some candles, turned off the lighter and set it on the kitchen counter in the upright position. A few minutes later the smoke alarms are going off and I look and there's a 4 inch blob of fire on my counter, the lighter completely burned up and burned a big spot on my counter.

Two times the lighter at different times once in my bedroom on my nightstand while I was sleeping blew up caught my nightstand wicker on fire I woke up put it out this time I had a lighter on my coffee table lit a cigarette put the lighter down it caught on fire I put it out the gas leaked out of it and it shot across the room on fire

lighter was sitting on covered table outside and it blew up into three pieces. One piece when at least 6 feet from the table the other two into the pool. It was not a hot day and the lighter was under an umbrella table. My husband had just lit a cigarette and had walked away.

Scripto butane lighter by Calico Brands spontaneously exploded, in an unoccupied room, causing a file on a wood dresser. Damaged dresser and burnt an adjacent leather belt. If no one was home to put out the flames we would have lost our entire home and dogs

I was at [REDACTED] . I left my lighter on the cup holder. When I returned the lighter was in peaces it must have exploded peaces everywhere.

I was outside at break having a cigarette. After lighting the cigarette I place the lighter on the picnic bench that i was sitting on. About 3 minutes after I hear a whoosh sound and see flames next to me. I was in shock when I saw this. Imagine this happening with the lighter in my car! Obviously an unsafe cheap product.

This caller purchased a St. Dupont lighter usually sold through Davidoff as U.S. representative but caller purchased it from an online dealer around the second week in August 2016. He attempted to contact the manufacturer August 26th,2016 regarding that since he has owned the lighter the flame would continue to burn after he switched it off. He will continue with his attempts to contact the manufacturer. The lighter is working as it was intended to work as a cigar lighter that would burn longer but it should turn off if switch is turned off. He wants to create this report because he states that after he switched the lighter off, he laid it down and it continued with a torch flame as the lighter hit a towel. It burned the towel which the caller was able to extinguish the towel by placing his hand over it. There are no injuries being reported.
