Motive pressure bleeder which one should I buy ?

Dear All
I live in Australia and I have got 4 different family cars :

1-Camry Altise 2013 2.5L
2-Corolla 2011 1.8L
3-Mazda3 2012 2L
4-Huyndai Elantra 2014 1.8L

I am looking to buy a Motive Products Power Bleeder pressurized tank with its specific adapters (kit) to fit each of my car

The link below showing different tank models starting from :

https://www.motiveproducts.com/colle...e-bleeder-kits

0100, 0109, 0107, 0108, 0101, 0118,,,,,etc (Some of them have black labels other red )

For example for Model 0109 website says adapter (1109)-(enhanced version of model 0100)

1-Which tank system model should I buy (Red label or black) ?
2-Does one tank with different adapters (kits) can be used universally ?
3-I found one tank says European Brake Bleeder,,,,,means doesn't fit Japaneses or Korean cars

Thx

1. The difference between the red label and the black label from what I can tell is the material it is made out of. Using your example of the model 0109 and the model 0100 the 0109 comes with aluminum adapter instead of the 0100 which is plastic. I personally have the 0100 and been using it for over 3 years with no issues. IMO there is no need to get the upgraded version the basic one does the job no problem.

2. The tank themselves are universal the adapters are where it is different. So for example my 0100 model if I buy a adapter for my Honda I can just still use my tank just switch the adapter that is all.

3.European Brake bleeder just means the adapter included in that kit is specific for European cars. you can buy additional adapter for different cars i.e: Japanese and Korean and still use the same bleeder. The European adapter works on most European cars i.e: BMW, AUDI, PORSCHE.... etc....

My Motive bleeder started leaking at the inline brass connector between bottle and connection with brake fluid resevoir after 6 months/ approx 5-6 brake bleeds between different cars. FYI.
