There comes a time when it’s good to reduce the number of wires and boxes that are hanging around your mount. I’ve always used a DC/DC adapter to convert 12V down to 8V for my DSLR and another to convert 12V to 5V for my 4-port USB hub. Finally I decided that enough was enough and merged the two into a single small unit.
