A fireworks manufacturing company is recalling one of its products for violating federal safety regulations, according to a notice issued by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) on June 18.
The recalled product, Pyro Diablo “Diablo Rising” 9 Shots, was made by Bada Boom Fireworks, the notice said.
“The recalled fireworks violate the ban for aerial fireworks devices intended to produce audible effects because they have a pyrotechnic composition that exceeds the federal limit, posing deadly explosion and burn hazards,” the CPSC said in its notice. “Overloaded fireworks can result in a greater than expected explosion.”
The device has a model number PD-C5001 with packaging displays of an orange dragon on a blue and purple background. The names of the brand and product as well as the item number and warning labels are located on the front and top of the packaging, according to the notice.
Consumers are urged to stop using the recalled fireworks devices and contact Bada Boom Fireworks for a refund, it said. They are also asked to return the fireworks to Bada Boom Fireworks retail locations.
No injuries have been reported associated with the fireworks devices, which were made in China. The items were sold at locations in Pennsylvania between March 2026 and May 2026 for around $45.
A report last year from found that injuries caused by recalled products hit their highest levels in eight years, with the head of the CPSC, Peter Feldman, attributing the rise to products made in China. Out of the 63 product warnings issued in 2024, 42 were linked to a manufacturer, exporter, or a responsible party from China, according to the Public Interest Research Group (PIRG).
“The United States is facing a flood of Chinese consumer products that violate U.S. safety laws,” he said. “When CPSC identifies illegal Chinese goods, the manufacturer is, more often than not, unreachable, unfindable, or uncooperative.”
The CPSC also released a statement on Wednesday warning consumers about safety hazards while lighting fireworks during the Fourth of July holiday. It said that thousands of injuries related to fireworks are reported each year. In 2025, it received reports of 15 deaths and 13,000 emergency department-treated injuries.
“The 15-to-24 age group accounted for the largest share of injuries, and burns to the hands, fingers and head were most common,” it said. “Many of the most severe incidents involved devices that tipped over, malfunctioned or were used too close to people.”
CPSC, in part, advised people to buy only legal fireworks, keep children away from fireworks, keep a bucket of water nearby while setting off fireworks, light one at a time then move away quickly, don’t relight a “dud” firework, and never aim or throw a device at another person.
