Its not all about voltage. The fans I use pull 1.5A at 12V. I was expecting this to go up as I dropped the voltage. Surprisingly it also dropped. At 5v they only pull 0.3A. So at full power they use 18W however I run them at 1.5W. I don't have any solid number but I would guess they are moving roughly half the aiur they used too.
