Aftermarket.
They originally came out in the late 70's. The original ones were somewhat of a collector item for a few years. More recently they have been reproduced in a limited batch that has now sold out (at least until they make more). Inside the tank is a simple float on a chain - not very accurate. More of a novelty than a functional item.
