I was dropping off a few things at a thrift store i don't usually go to and just had to go see what they had, i saw a black handle with a hose running down the center and had to check it out. I've had two Fantom Thunders before, but i remember someone saying the Cyclone XT was a better machine so i picked it up and now that i've got it home it's airflow and suction seem kinda...weak. I've washed out the cyclone assembly cleaned the pre motor filter, removed the hepa filter to see if that would make a significant difference which it didn't seem to. My thunder was like this too which makes me wonder has anyone else had a problem with weak suction and airflow on one of these?

how is the hepa filter, because that can be clogged. I have one and believe it or not it pulls 90" on my meter |

That could be it i'm thinking if anywhere it's got to be right above the dust cup cause if i remove the cup it's strong at the inlet hmm...well the gasket is there but now i noticed something i ran it without the cup just the cyclonic shroud it's strong through the 2nd cyclone but if i plug that off there's to no airflow through the shroud... *pulls out screwdriver* no problems there that i can see...
