Power consumption

Would adding a 11,2 W fan and approximately 1 meter of 12 V LED strip lights (not sure about power consumption) be an overkill for a MK2 power supply?
I read from various sources that MK2 doesn't really exceeds 200W power from it's 240W rated power supply. Would that be enough power reserve for power consumption peaks if fan and LED strip was added?

10W is no problem.

But keep in mind, if you're printing "hot" matierals, like Nylon with hot heatbed the power supply getting warm, maybe to warm. Specially if the printer is in a cabinet.

Power supply will bit outside of the cabinet I'm building. I'll purchase 7W fan instead then and in combination with LEDs the consumption will be around 10W I think. thx
