Okay so what the heck is this thing?

So i'm going through some of my junk finds from the last few months and I come across what I thought was the broken top end of an ink pen or something. Then I took a better look and noticed some wierd markings which turned out to be a miniature circuit board or something on one end. To make it even better, the other end of this thing is magnetic and it unscrews and hold 3 small button cell batteries. The object is only 7/16 of an inch tall and 7/16 of an inch in diameter. What is this thing?

A little magnet goes inside the shirt and it can be "pinned" to the outside. We handed those out July 4th when I worked for the carnival.

A quick reply. You gotta love it! Thanks to the both of you. Now that I know it's not a secret spy listening bug, i'll toss it.

I like your avatar "living in a cesspool on a slab of concrete" describes life in the Miami/Fort Lauderdale area. This is an old article but nothing has really changed. http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,922693,00.html

Only an American living in S.Fl. for a good while could comprehend my quote.
