You can easily make your own, and once you have used on you will never, ever, do it the old way.
Having gotten thoroughly tired of bleeding the brakes by myself and itching to try and build something I decided to make my own pressure bleeder.
Original idea was inspired by this ;

Having used a pressure bleeder before it is by far the easiest way I've found to make this an easy one person job. Total cost for what I put together here was around $12.
Step one - buy the bits
Note - I don't think you want the Pipe Bushing that the original thread shows- for the TR6 it extends down into the fluid reservoir and would possibly aerate the fluid (not good).
Find some washers - I used brass to match the hose barb but not sure if you need to.
And a couple of o-rings
Some tubing (note - I lifted this picture from the original thread)
New spray bottle
Step two - use a Dremel to drill a slightly undersized hole in a brake spare master cylinder lid
Step three - connect the fitting to the lid
I used an O-ring and two washers to press down on the O-ring and had a good fit once I threaded everything down. The plastic on the lid is thick enough you can create thread by screwing the fitting in.
Yes, I will clean the lid before I actually use it....
Step 4 - connect the hose and attach the hose to the spray controller on the spray bottle and you are done. On the sprayer I bought I didn't even need to trim the plastic sparer nozzle, the tubing fit on it and actually snugly fit over some theads that were there.
Done!
