The equipment

The fan that we’re going to use is an Enermax 80mm case fan with adjustable speed. Other necessary equipment:



- A power-drill
- A 4,8mm drill
- Some superglue
- 4 bright red leds
- 4 470ohm resistors
- A Soldering iron
- Some wires
- Soldering flux
- An Enermax case fan (or a fan with transparent blades)

Adding the leds to the enermax case-fan

Step 1:
pick up your power-drill an put the 4,8mm drill in it. Then drill a hole in every corner in the fan:



Step 2:
Solder a resistor to the positive side of the led and put some heat shrinking tube over it. Then solder a wire to the negative side of the led and put some heat shrinking tube over it.
Now, push this led into a whole (check if it doesn’t touch the blades of the fan). If the led keeps falling out glue it in the hole with some superglue.

Step 3:
Solder a resistor to the positive side of the led and put some heat shrinking tube over it. Push this led into a hole next to the other led and connect the negative wire of the first led with the positive side (the side with the resistor)
It should look like this:



Now keep doing this with the other 2 leds until you have this:



The easy part is over, now it gets a little more difficult...
