For 20 bucks really? Is it a handpump model you dip directly into the toilet water?
Aww damn. Prices went up since I bought mine, but it was $20 when I got something similar to this one :

Please use URL Check to de-spy your links
What is it? Why?
That's the link. Everything after the '?' is information encoded in key=value pairs separated by an ampersand (&). It's harmless on its own and it's useful for rendering pages. But big corpos now attach extra info about your browsing session for analytics and advertisements and who knows what else. TikTok, Facebook and Amazon are the most notorious for abusing this. In FB, for example, they use an "fbid=" parameter associated with your account and YouTube uses "si=" so they can track who gets the link from whom.
As a rule of thumb, if the link is obnoxiously long, it's tracking something.
Wow that's crazy thanks
You're welcome! Sorry, I had to edit for clarity. Hopefully it's better explained now and less wordy.
You're a real gentleman
