Ray, thank you for your assistance. In my online quest for a solution I came across this neat toy, the PowerSwitch Tail II.

The input takes anywhere from 3-12V to trigger the device, so if I use a voltage divider to lower the output voltage from the OSPi, I should be able to control this nicely from the OSPi. Do you see any problem in my logic?
