What's recalled

This recall includes Laser & LED Light Mini Laser Pointer Keychains with model number KKC-6071. The model number is printed on the product packaging. The keychains were sold individually and packaged in a case of 24. The lasers come in various colors including blue, white, red, black, green and purple. Labeling wrapped around the laser is a silver sticker with black and silver lettering that reads: "HJ, DANGER, LASER RADIATION, AVOID DIRECT EYE EXPOSURE, LASER DIODE, Wavelength: 630-650nm Max. Output: <5mW, class IIIa LASER PRODUCT."

The risk

The Mini Laser Pointer Keychains violate the mandatory safety standard for consumer products with button cell and coin batteries because the button batteries can be accessed easily by children, posing an ingestion hazard. Additionally, the packaging and product do not have the warnings required under Reese's Law. When button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns and death. None reported
