Burn Injury Risk Prompts Fireworks Recall
Due to a burn injury hazard, a burn injury product recall has been issued for Super Lightning Rocket Fireworks by Big Fireworks, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, (CPSC).
Almost 5,000 Super Lightning Rockets are being recalled by the Lansing, Michigan company because they are not compliant with federal regulations that designate the amount of explosive material that can be present in this product. These rockets are “overloaded with pyrotechnic composition,” according to the CPSC warning.
Burn Injury Fireworks Recall: Product Description
The rockets are 1.5 inches in diameter, mounted on a 32-inch wooden stick. They are wrapped in black paper with a solar system image background and “Super Rocket” printed on the label in various colors. Sold in packages of four, the recalled fireworks contain the item number GCR3150 on the front of the package and on the rockets themselves. They were sold from November 2009 through June 2010 at fireworks stores in the following states:

Consumers can contact Big Fireworks about receiving a refund, and should absolutely NOT use the hazardous fireworks.
