I am thinking of making some on/off toggles for my 5 fans. If I use DPDT toggles then I can power a red (for off) and a green (for on) LED for each fan. I was thinking of doing something original with them.
I want to print a layout of my computer, with the locations of each fan on it. I was thinking that if I print them on transparancy paper, then I could put a red and green LED behind each fan on the layout. That way, I could see at a glance, which of my fans are on and which are off. It would also make it easy for a person not knowing my computer to do turn off my fans. I plan on using 3 V LEDs that are underpowered, so that the LEDs are not very bright. I would like the layout pics to be CAD like, but I don have any CAD knowledge. I used ms paint and came up with this for the front of my modded Lian-Li PC-82.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE comment...suggestions.
This is kinda like a control panal for a damn...letting u see which flood gate (or fan) is open/closed (on/off)
