It's not a kit, but [silent:arts] sells the PCB (send him an email). You'll need to source the parts yourself but there's a BOM linked in the first post and plenty of info in this thread.

Just to follow up on this, I ended up using an Antek AS-05TC250 . I cut the lead of the 5v on the transformer and jumpered the second 6.3v to the 5v Relay rail at the terminal blocks ( The 5v tap would've been a little too close for comfort to the drop out voltage on the regulator I used). This works well and is inexpensive (currently $32 + 8.5 shipping) for US buyers.

Do you have any photos to share of this setup? I'm interested in seeing how this looks!

Sure. It's not a great photo but you should be able to see the jumper between the Channel 2 heater and the relay input. Later on I connected wire from that same terminal block to power the vu lamps. They're pretty bright even at the heater voltage.View attachment IMG_0148.jpeg
