The products violate child-resistant packaging requirements.
EEMB USA has recalled about 312,100 Lithium Battery Packs because the lithium coin batteries are in pouches that are not child-resistant as required under Reese’s Law. If a child swallows button cell or coin batteries, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, including internal chemical burns and death (CPSC Recall Notice, No. 26-465 (May 7, 2026)).
Incidents and injuries. No incidents or injuries have been reported.
Product description. The recall covers EEMB lithium coin batteries packaged in white pouches and sold in packs of five, ten, or twenty units.

The batteries are marked with “EEMB” and the specific battery type, while the pouch displays the brand name in the upper left corner.
The products were sold on Amazon.com from August 2023 through April 2026 at prices ranging from $3 to $9. They were manufactured in China.
