1) 0o my bad... Vdrop on those diodes is actually about 1V*. That makes things easier.

2) Oh, the fans...... -_- You can just put the LED in parallel with the fan power leads with a resistor appropriate for the highest voltage it will see. It will just be a bit dimmer when the fan is running on a lower voltage.

* See BG's next post...
