Was the old one knackered too? I would try this first unless it was knackered before sending back to compare. As the item defective contact Paddocks first and ask for a return number due leaking on first use.
My bad- it’s the easybleed! It was leaking from the bottom on the screw fitting round the back!
Tried everything to get the thing to seal onto the reservoir but it just keeps ****ing out, even down to 5 psi! The plastic screw cap seems so soft it just jumps a thread if I go too tight.
Anybody any experience of these things?

Yeah, they’re not the best of fits on the threads. In my experience, anyway.

Never use them, I just gravity bleed.

I use the easybleed most times I'm working on breaks or clutch, the caps supplied are not always a perfect fit. The last time I used mine (3 weeks ago) was on my 200Tdi 90 clutch, ended up using the old master cap because nothing in the kit fitted dead tight. Drill clearance hole through top of cap, bolt in the hose fitting, sorted. Took less time than trying to find a cap that fitted.

Yes, I save the cap
Off the old MC and made it work with the eazibleed.
The eezibleed cap needs like one extra turn of thread then I think it would work
