Help with Fan LED control

i have 3 Cooler Master Jetflow White LED fans installed at the front of my case.
At idle they are set to spin @30% of power to avoid noise.

But at that power level the LEDs of the fans are really dim lit at the point of being non-existent.
I'd like to know if there is a way to control the LEDs to make them light up at high brightness irrespective of the fan speed.
I can do some minor moddings to the fans if its required.
I've seen a local modder do that but he was disinclined to share the method with me -_-

Maybe try taking the fans apart and look on the leds power cable if theres any, then maybe soldering an independent cable and connecting it to a molex end, then stacking all 3 up and connecting on one PSU molex

 

Don't buy Apple M1 computers with 8GB of RAM

Are you sure the fan speed is controlled trough PWM instead of voltage control? Are they plugged in to the mobo directly or though a fan hub or maybe a low noise adapter?
