Kolink Observatory HF Mesh front fans

[MissChief]

Not sure if I’m missing something here but the front 140mm fans only have what appear to be single leads despite being RGB. The connectors aren’t standard fan style and the rear and top fans connect via SATA for power but I have nothing like this for the front fans? Has anyone built in this case?

i've previously built in the observatory lite
if i recall correctly, they should all daisy chain together with jst-sm connectors

I seem to be missing a cable somewhere then, they daisy chain together but then I have no connection to power them.

all the fans get powered by a single sata connector

That’s what I’m missing then. Will have a dig around my many boxes.

Don't have the case but they could be ARGB.

They have a single connector. I even removed one to check, single cable.

Found this info on how to connect the fans.

No idea if it works, but something to try.

hi I have the same case and yes the rear fan is the master fan that's how you daisy chain all the fans together my cable connections are the female header from the rear fan plugged into a chassis fan connector in mobo the female Argb connector from the rear fan to Argb connector on mobo and a sata cable for power and my fans and the Argb are working no problem with this cable setup I didn't need any Argb adapter
Also the fans are really quiet even though they always go at 100%
