You're probably better off just cutting off the cable and tacking two wires in its place. The power is bussed across the backplane, so you could probably get by running a cpu and disk from a single 9A switcher. From what I've read in old NGEN mail, the little Aztec switchable 5/12v modules inside weren't very reliable either. You can't just get rid of the 36v, though, since that's what powers the monitor. I a copy of the patent for the NGEN power supply system (453073) is on bitsavers. Also found a few other useful ones, like how the X-Bus and SCSI bus work.
