Just got a Kokopelli Rogue Lite -- seeking budget friendly internal drybag suggestions

Looking to get two for gear, seems like most run 80-100 USD each. Found this pair for 70 USD for the small size (42L). Best deal I've found so far-- any recommendations out there? Planning on mostly chill rivers and lakes, no whitewater.

Scepter makes two 5 gallon water jugs: tan military grade and standard blue. I chose the standard blue for reasons.

A while back I wanted a flexible nozzle to make water dispensing easier and found this scepter product, just what I was looking for... except that it only fits the smaller military jug spout and not the larger jerry-can-style blue jug spout. And apparently no one else really makes such an item. So I bought it, bought a plastic 3D printed adapter, bought a hose clamp, and voila--finally a water spout for my water jug. Truly an annoying but satisfying process.

Now I've decided I'd like to try these water pumps that seem to be popular on the forums, cheap, and reasonably reliable. They do not natively accept a threaded receiver, so again this requires a custom 3D printed part that apparently only exists for the military grade jug spout. And I can see how adapting this adapter to the larger jerry can size spout could be complicated or impossible.

So, does anyone know of 1.) a water pump that might fit the standard jerry can style water jug spout, or 2.) an adapter for those water pumps previously referenced that would fit said jerry can spout, or 3.) someone in Scepter R&D that I may furiously address my pedantic frustrations to?

Thanks.

PS: Please don't tell me to just buy the tan military grade jug. That is far too easy of a solution.

Looking to get back into all the Tony Hawk Pro Skater games I grew up with via the PCSX2 emulator. Is there a recommended controller out there I should use? Wireless would be nice. Preferably as lag free as possible. Bonus points for affordability!
