Nope, and nope. I bought the XL ones. If you look at the item description below, where I highlighted the text at the bottom, you can clearly see that they are advertised as emitting 125ml per day. Not sure how you got 8X the rated output from yours.

By the time you add a battery for the overkill pump it isn’t that inexpensive
But I haven’t really priced out a system in a few years so maybe…
I am not positive but I think it was 20

You can get a 100ah marine battery for around $60 at auto zone. For what he is trying to achieve its not really that costly.
