I actually have one of those (bought it for the pump, threw away the rest). It's a piece of crap, all of the detailing is fake and the construction is of very poor quality. However, it has an awesome pump - high volume, superb seal - that I'll be using in a homemade. I essentially bought a 99 cent pump complete w/ compact check valves and a sizable reservoir intake with a screen.

It is directly comparable to an XP 150. The pump volume is somewhere between 60-75 mL, if I had to make a closer guess, between 64-71 mL. I don't have a graduated cylinder, so I used a measuring cup with less than ideal measurement spacing. The seal, however, is of much higher quality than an XP 150.

I should've thought of it that way lol. Then again, I never saw any Bottle Blasters for a decent price.

Hint don't drop it with a loaded 2L that is how mine died 2 years ago.
If you ever bother reading these, I worry for your mental sanity.
