I want the same, but without using a PC power supply (AC outlet powered). --- End quote --- Get a wall wart that outputs 12v DC (or 5v if that's what you want) and wire it up. |

You would need a step down transformer, that would likely cost about the same as a 12V power supply. I just ran my Cold Cathode off of the 12V on the arcade PS. |
