I now learned to never turn on wifi ever again. and I will never have to see the stupid ads also.
Is this normal?

It seems to me that it was more the loading of 1500 books that lead to the massive indexing load that drained your battery, rather than anything to do with the wifi being on.
If you load loads of books, leave it on and plugged in to finish indexing.
If you don't want to load books via wifi, don't send them to your kindle, download to your computer for transfer via USB instead.
