Don't go above 15 psi with a pressure bleeder. 10-12 psi should be more than plenty. And yes, it is a good idea to always pressurize the bleeder without fluid

Vacuum pump > pressure bleeder for brakes. I have a much nicer vacuum pump now. My motive power bleeder is far superior to the cheap vacuum pumps (like a cheap Mityvac) but much more of a pain than a good quality vacuum pump.
