What Is Being Recalled?
EEMB USA, doing business as A2batt, Inc., of Redlands, California, is recalling about 312,100 EEMB lithium coin batteries sold in individual pouches. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced the recall (number 26-465) on May 7, 2026. The batteries were sold online at Amazon.com from August 2023 through April 2026 for between $3 and $9.The lithium coin batteries are packaged in pouches that are not child-resistant as required under Reese's Law, the federal statute requiring child-resistant packaging for button cell and coin batteries. If a child swallows a button cell or coin battery, the ingested battery can cause serious injuries, including internal chemical burns and death.
The affected models are CR2025, CR2032, CR2450, CR2477, CR2016, CR1220, CR1225, CR1616, CR1620, CR1632, and CR2025-10, sold in five-, 10-, and 20-count packs. The silver batteries are marked "EEMB" along with the battery type on the front, and came in white pouches with "EEMB" printed in the upper-left corner. No incidents or injuries had been reported at the time of the recall.
Why Are the EEMB Batteries Being Recalled?
Reese's Law took effect to address a long-standing danger: small coin and button cell batteries are easy for young children to remove from loose packaging and swallow. When swallowed, these batteries can lodge in the esophagus and cause severe internal chemical burns within hours, sometimes with fatal results. The law requires that the batteries be sold in child-resistant packaging and carry specific warnings.The CPSC determined that EEMB's pouches do not meet those child-resistant packaging requirements, which is why the batteries are being recalled even though the cells themselves function normally. The recall is preventive — it is about the packaging, not a defect in the batteries.
Who Is Affected?
You are affected if you bought EEMB lithium coin batteries in 5-, 10-, or 20-count pouches on Amazon.com between August 2023 and April 2026. Check your batteries and packaging for the "EEMB" marking and one of the recalled model numbers (CR2025, CR2032, CR2450, CR2477, CR2016, CR1220, CR1225, CR1616, CR1620, CR1632, or CR2025-10).If you have these batteries, stop using them immediately and place them in a location that children cannot access until you are ready to dispose of or recycle them.
How Do I Get a Refund?
To request a full refund, contact EEMB USA through the official EEMB recall page. According to EEMB's recall instructions, you will need to:• Provide your purchase order number so EEMB can verify your order
• Write "RECALL" clearly on the battery packaging and send a photo showing the marked packaging
• Send photo proof showing the batteries are ready for disposal — placed in an appropriate battery recycling or disposal container in accordance with local regulations
Once EEMB receives and verifies the required information and photos, it will process the refund. Button cell and coin batteries are hazardous waste; dispose of or recycle them by following your local hazardous waste procedures.
