When I went to the US recently, I built my own 110/220V converter. I
found a small (10VA) transformer that had dual 120V primaries and wired
these as an autotransformer. Boxed it up in small wooden box and Bob's
your uncle.

PS If you can't work out how to do it from the above, don't try it
yourself, get someone with some more electrical knowledge :-)
