as  Brian Foster said, it depends on what you wnat
todo, what the spec of the power source and what the
spec of the souce is. what are the torlences ?

the cheepest way to to this is to build a dc/dc
converter, if is just a one off.... but youll need
some form of a multi meter.

a few suppiliers to check, all on line, for both
projects and prebuilt products

maplin.co.uk (in dublin, and blanch)
peats (peats of parnell st)

to a lesser degrese
radionics
farnell

hope this helps
