The pic and description of that IV line doesn't give enough detail. Common lengths are 72" to 110". The higher you can hang the bag the faster the possible infusion. Measure the length needed from where the bag will be hanging to where you'll be when infusing. Add 12" or more line length for freedom of movement.

More importantly, what's the drip rate? 60 drops per ml will be a very slow infusion since the drip chamber will be restricting flow. 15 drops per ml moves quick.

All IV drip lines should have a line lock on them. This can be used to reduce the flow from faster lines like the 15 drops per ml ones. If you buy 60 drop per ml lines you're stuck with the slow rate.

Yes, that ad has a much better description and is something I used to buy for infusions. Just make sure the 78" + 12" of line on the butterfly needle is enough to have some slack from where you're going to hang the bag.
