Adding Extra Fan

Does anyone know of any way to add an additional fan to the XL? I added an enclosure to my XL and I'm using the Bento Box filter ( https://www.printables.com/model/272525-bentobox-v20-carbon-filter-for-bambu-lab-x1c-enclo) from my X1C. For now I'm just plugging my fans directly into a wall wart, but that's a bit of a pain. I'd like a way to wire it directly into the printer, ideally in a way it can be controlled by GCODE. Does anyone know if there's any way to do that?

RE: Adding Extra Fan

Hi, 

The official Enclosure is now out, checking the install instructions it uses a small board/spltter that connects to the main board ( fan + pwm and additional led), 

From the firmware, it will check if it can find a fan and gets a PWM signal, but there is this additional splitter board, looks like it is not doing much, but would need to verify....

I will test what happens if I connect my prusa enclosure fan, looks like it uses the same connector  and report back.
