| Yes you can but wire them in parallel not series. You should be able to connect them to your controller but you probably will need to add a resistor in series on your +12v side to keep from burning out the leds if you turn it up too high.

| Somewhere on the flex circuit wrapped around your fan there should be a surface mount resistor already. If you can cut the circuit and just solder wired to the leads of the led's you should be ok
