That black blob is the processing chip covered in epoxy. Try not to short circuit near it because it will melt from the inside and then explode covering your eyes with molten raisin.

I try doing this every now and again and sometimes I touch two points together and it fries the whole thing so no matter how many times I restart it it still doesen't work and sometimes smoke starts coming from it so I throw it out the window before it explodes (one time I was messing around with a TORCH that looked pretty harmless and it was harmless untill hours later when I examined it and it was HALF MELTED! and when I threw it in the bin it EXPLODED AND CAUGHT FIRE!)

so BE VERY CAREFUL!!!!
