Leetous Recalls Glow Sticks and Glasses Party Pack Toys Due to Serious Injury or Death from Ingestion Hazard; Violation of Federal Regulations for Battery-Operated Toys; Sold Exclusively on Amazon.com

What's being recalled

This recall involves Leetous LED glow sticks and glasses party pack toys. The party pack toys included six light-up glasses (blue, pink, and white) and six glow sticks (orange, green, blue, red and purple). The products come packaged in a blue box with party graphics. The Leetous logo is printed on the upper left corner of the box and "Model No. LTXN1003" is printed on the back.

The problem, in CPSC's words

The glow sticks and glasses violate the mandatory federal battery-operated toy regulation because the button cell batteries are in a compartment that can be opened easily without requiring the use of a common household tool. When button cell and coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns or death, posing an ingestion hazard to children.
