The Whizzinator is a prosthetic penis that comes with a heating element and fake urine.

U S Attorney Mary Beth Buchanan’s office says the goal of it and another device called Number 1 was to help people pass drug tests.

George Wills and Robert Catalano each pleaded guilty Monday to two conspiracy counts and face up to eight years in prison, a $500 million (£334,000) fine or both.

They owned the California-based internet company Puck Technology and the devices were sold from 2005 to 2008.

„The Whizzinator is the ultimate solution for a drug testing device,“ says a statement on the website of the California-based company, which calls itself the „undisputed leader in synthetic urine.“

„The prosthetic penis is very realistic and concealing is simple, while our quality production and materials assures you that the Whizzinator will let it flow again and again, anytime, anywhere you need it!“

Mr Catalano and Mr Wills pleaded guilty to conspiracy to sell drug paraphernalia and conspiracy to defraud the United States government.

Puck Technology also pleaded guilty to the same charges. The company has stopped operating.

Mr Wills and Mr Catalano appeared before a federal court in Pittsburgh and are scheduled to be sentenced in February.
