The false E6 battery is available as the DR-E6.
The Canon ACK-E6 240v power supply(which includes the DR-E6) has a regulated 8v output up to 3 amps. I'm sure there are 12v to 8v power supplies out there. Jaycar only has one that does 7.5v and 9v, no 8.
It may work on 7.5v but dunno. It only has 2A output but think that would be fine.

If you're handy with a soldering iron there are a few 8v regulator IC's out there... the cheapest but least efficient would be the 7508.
