It looks like you got the help you need, but for future reference:

1. You can use a resistor network to lower the voltage of a source. However, you need to be careful of the amount of current that you need at the lower voltage.

2. You can also buy DC-DC converters that can either step up or step down a DC voltage.

3. Instead of a relay, you may also be able to use a transistor. They can switch large amounts of current with a low input voltage and very low input current.
