Default Map Gas Recall 1-20-2012

I just found this out when I went Home Depot and found no map gas.
Came back and looked it up.
Map gas in the tall canister has been recalled
http://www.recalls.gov.au/content/in...itemId/1009686

Please be safe. It looks like the one referred to as the Fat Boy is OK
Correct me if I'm wrong. but this seem legitimate

Actually here in Texas Home depot has pulled all the 400gr canisters off the shelves and will not sell them.
Just be careful is all I'm saying

UPDATE!...

Apparently its not just in Australia... But worldwide, due to defective valve in tank ...

http://www.mapcylinderrecall.com/

New bottles manufactured after January 15, 2012 will have a black diamond on top of bottle signifying that it has new style cutoff valve... And are deemed safe...
