This Motiv one is the small one I found. It is about the same price, with out the valve and not for
our cars. So Thinnk it was a good price for what I made. And like I said in the post, it could have been done cheaper with a MUCH smaller tank. and plastic fittings.<ul><li><a href="http://www.fcpgroton.com/product-exec/product_id/22523/nm/Power+Brake+Bleeder">Pressure Bleeder</a></li></ul>

Thanks! For the overfill, I would do the same you do for the clutch. That is not much fluid....
But doing the whole brake and clutch system I would just shut the red valve off for the last leg of the system and then do it with air and toping off the reservoir like you said.
One thing also on the contamination note. The tank need to be cleaned VERY well before using. There is a lot of plastic crap from manufacturing and for drilling the holes. So yeah it's definitely something to be mindful of.

The Movit one is nice. I mentioned it above. But it has no valve and you can make this one for much
less than I did. I bought a 1.5 gallon pump which is overkill but it is all they had. You can get .5 gallon pump online for under $20. Mine was $35 and the poultry injector was 5. so really you can easily make one for $30. If you use plastic fittings you'd save a few more bucks.(Movit is all platic, not that it really matters)
Anyway I did it because it was fun. I had already seen all the available options.
