USB/DC to RCA adapters

Just wondering if anyone knows where I can get USB Type A female to RCA and/or DC to RCA adapters? Sirius Optics have the DC to RCA listed but don't seem to like responding to availability inquiries. Got a Pegasus Pocket Powerbox coming and want to connect my dew heaters to it's controller.

TIA,
Mark

Do you know the pin-outs of the connectors on each end? If so, and you're reasonably handy with a soldering iron, you can always make your own cables.

Was thinking that will be the easiest (and cheapest) way to go.

Reterminate the USB with RCA? I'd be a bit worried about the 5/12v difference and being able to run the pwm low enough.

DC to RCA I can understand, but USB to RCA?

Of course you're right - I'll engage the brain next time.

It's only the guide cam so no problems running it off the USB.
