You need an LM7812 regulator chip. I think it's available from Radio Shack. It's easy to use and would only need a couple of parts in addition to the chip.

That's assuming that the power supply is DC.

Here's a link to that.

You'd need a voltage regulator then, or another power supply. Do think about whether you want to spend time & money on modifying this one or just getting a 12V supply.
