    Separate power supply (AC adapter) from an old router. Output 12vdc 1A. Cut the 12v plug off, soldered the two connecting wires to the fan, applied shrink tubing to the connections. If you want something more elaborate get a universal AC adapter with selectable voltages from 1.5 or so to 12vdc.
