Powering CPU fans

Just wondering how you guys power cpu fans, I was thinking splicing the cpu fan wires and connecting all of them to one main power supply or have each individual one powered bv a battery maybe?

Thus the reason for this thread, Just wondering how you would power it, I am going to be mounting them near each 400W/600W blub but not blocking any source of output. (there is also going to be inline fans w/ charcoal filters circulate/filter the air along with oscillating fans)

I am going to use a 80MM case fan that puts out about 38.2CFM - It comes as a 3 Pin connection which is the normal connection for smaller case fans like this.

All ideas will be considered.

What I aiming to have within my garden is, https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/508080-need-help-making-descisions-coming.html

Thanks in advance.

If your power supply has enough amperage, you can wire them in parallel to the same power supply. I don't think they draw a lot of current so any unused power supply of the correct voltage and 500 mA should power a few CPU fans...
 
Get a 12v power supply.
I used one i got off my old router, and splice it.
Than just connect red with red and black with black.
You can use phone chargers too, but they run at like 5.5v so they are kinda weak.
