pull out shower faucet

On my 2016 Sprinter with the pop top raised I hook a shower curtain to the sides of the poptop and stand in a plastic tub while showering. The shower curtain snaps to the tub with no leakage. It's a great system and is one my favorite features of the van. The pull out faucet has a 6 ft hose.

The faucet is like the one in the picture (not my van) - I'm looking for a faucet that has an on/off on the handle.
It's a bit of a pain to reach out of the "shower stall" to turn off the water while soaping up. If I could have an on/off on the handle it would be easier on me.

My fresh water tank is 17 gal and I really have to conserve water while camping

Any ideas?
Thanks David

Just get the cheap sprayer like what is used to rise dishes at home . It’s small has a on off and does not use a bunch of water.

Yup, that’s what I did. Works fine and is cheap. I added in a T-fitting with a valve, too.

Yes I also use the Nemo shower with the same shower head and use it over the inside unit.
