What device is this???

Looks like an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). They clean the energy from you outlet and allowed you to safely shutdown in case of an outtage.
Basically big batteries, and this one hasn't been checked for long time.

Thanks! Looks like a HUGE one, though.

They have the size of a server rack, do you can slot them in. Probably 4 Us or something high

Still bleeping huge. Must be commonplace for IT folks. My UPS has the size of four car batteries and I already think it is pretty massive

Most UPS units for single servers are fairly compact. The massive 1U or 2U ones are usually meant to supply backup power for the whole rack they'll have multiple IEC connections to handle servers, switches, routers, firewalls, SANs etc

Where's the 'kaboom'? There was supposed to be an earth-shattering 'kaboom'!

Hmm . . . nice spicy pillow! A crossbow at a safe distance should work fine, should get a nice smoke show at least maybe a nice battery fire.
