What/why is the circuit board in the Magicshine battery pack?

I dropped my Magicshine battery pack ion the toilet -- please don't snicker! The second time I went to use the light after that it didn't work. I took the battery pack apart and found it has micro-circuitry between the battery and the cable. For whatever reason connection to the battery was lost in this circuit board. I moved the negative (black) wire directly to the battery output and now everything seems to work properly. I have the three different brightness levels and two flash modes and the charger seems to be working the same. I have bypassed some kind of function but i have no idea what.

What the hell is this circuit board for?
