That mysterious thing is probably a metal pellet that would be enclosed in the sealed case to act as a cayalyst to neutralize any hydrogen gas released from the batteries (for safety). I think they use platinum or palladium or a simlar metal if my memory serves. Flashlights that are sealed air tight often include that.

I had a headlamp like this but it was a different brand well anyway it had 3 white LEDs and 1 standard bulb well the digital circuit thats inside the lamp died so i used the parts of my lamp for other things and i have a crank light that had this same circuit, died as well so i rigged it runs of 3 triple A’s
