thanks for the answers, I just wanted to make myself look foolish as an outsider for the benefit of spreading smiles in your community. The computer need and why no water gets answered by "this is for removing hair" :D
I guess this is for pro use instead of home use , so they didn't bother putting fancy stuff on there to seem appealing, and functional equipment gets put in beige boxes to minimise costs and remove specificity.
If the same electrical company is making electrolysers for water treatments at various power levels, they can just shove different components in the same box and send it off for electrolysing water to "clean shit" , remove hair and whatever else it gets used for, since the machine just puts out an electrical current between two probes.
EDIT : thus no need to have boxes with different aesthics, and buying 10x or 100x the same box is cheaper than buying 10 or 100 different types of box
