Post Speed bleeders - Help for bleeding brake lines

I noticed a few people having trouble bleeding brake lines mainly because they were trying to do it alone. I found this the other day (I'm sure most already know about them?) but here is a link for "Speed bleeders" Each bleeder has a spring/check ball which allows you to open each bleeder and pump the pedal without having to close it each time. Seems like a great idea

Speedbleeders are great, but you need a
"CLEAN" system, if debris lodges in the
check valve, they dont work so good....
But if your putting together a rebuilt or
new brake system (or have already flushed
out an old system), they do make it very
easy to bleed the brakes. Just keep it
clean.
