A pool cleaner including a paddle wheel mechanism positioned within a fluid path of the pool cleaner. The paddle wheel mechanism includes a housing that directs fluid from the fluid path into a first flow path through a first inlet and a second flow path through a second inlet, where the first flow path and the second flow path pass separately through the housing and recombine before an outlet portion. A paddle wheel shaft is supported by the housing, and a first paddle wheel and a second paddle wheel are supported by the paddle wheel shaft. The first paddle wheel is configured to rotate the paddle wheel shaft responsive to fluid directed across the first paddle wheel through the first flow path. The second paddle wheel is configured to rotate the paddle wheel shaft responsive to fluid directed across the second paddle wheel trough the second flow path.
