5V fan compatibility #131

Hi, Is there an easy way to use with 5V (Noctua) fans? I know most of the PC fans are 12 V.
I have 3-4 Noctua fans in my rack and I want to control them, independently from my Home Assistant.

FanPico "power-board" was created to allow running high-current fans. But it also works for running fans that use different voltage (5V to 24V), as long as Fan accepts 5V PWM signal to control fan speed.

(I have some PCBs for these and plan on making handful of "kits" available in coming weeks...)
