Hello,
can someone please help me with the wiring of this RGB LED fan? How to figure out the four pins for the LED lighting? How many volts and amperes?
Any hint appreciated.
many thanks

Hi,

are you aware that we just see a couple of wires and a connector and a fan....

...and we don´t see:
* the LED strip
* the connections to the LED strip
* the type and manufacturer of the LED strip
* or any information to give us the chance to answer your question.

It´s like showing a picture of a tyre and asking what type of fuel the car needs. Don´t you agree?

Dont get me wrong: I want to help, but it´s impossible.

Hi,

many thanks for the response. You are absolutely right but I got this fan out of a PC case and I don't know where to start. I was hoping there are some standard things about them but I can't find schematics online. I also don't have any other info but I wired PIN2 (12V) and PIN4(GND) and got this funny looking light scheme. I just want to get all the LEDs with white color. Any hints how to continue?

many thanks

Hi,

I'm guessing the lighting set-up may be a little complex to figure out, and may/will certainly need an MCU or something programmable. ...Rather you than me... I didn't even know these things existed. I found this, if it helps to get started: COUGAR RGB HPB120 COOLING KIT
