i have 3 cool thermaltake fans and 2 of them with leds. and i want to add RPM sensors (3rd pin) for them, so i'll be able to spec fans speed.
so, maybe anyone knows how to make fan RPM sensor..

I'm not sure if you will be able to do this.The sensors are part of the fans circuit so you cant really add it on.I am not sure if there is any other way to do it.

it cant be done. if you need fans with RPM sensors, buy new fans. (something better than thermaltake, too)

i dont use LED fans at all, so i have no reccomendations there. Yate loon, nexus, panaflo are my non-LED reccomendations.
