Raspberry Pi 40mm Fan Mount

To accommodate this new component, I required a holder of some sort. However, the fan itself produced an unacceptable level of noise, prompting me to acquire a transistor to control it via the GPIO pins. While adding this feature to my mount, I thought that status LEDs would be a nice addition. The fan's design allows for three LED lights (Green, Yellow, Red) and one transistor to fit within its space. With a simple Python script, the temperature is constantly monitored, and when necessary, the script turns on or off the LEDs and fan based on the temperature reading.
