The online retailer Amazon currently has an 'Automatic Transformer Adapter 500W 110v/220v 220v/110v' on sale for $38.89. That's 51% lower than the list price of $79.99 and that's before the free shipping!
Sure. You can go a couple of ways. You can look for a 110v to 9v transformer, if you can find one, or you can get a 110v to 18v center tapped transformer. If you get the second one, when you hook up the 9v side, you connect between one of the ends of the 18v coil and the center tap. Right now you're thinking, "I said a 9v to 110v transformer, not a 110v to 9v." That you did, but transformers don't care about that--they'll step voltage up as readily as they'll step it down. (Back when all we had was tubes to work with, transformers with a 6v winding and a high-voltage winding--300v, 400v, 2500v, whatever--were very common because tubes need a LOT of voltage to work.) There are two things you really should think about here if you're trying to take 9v to 110v. First, if your intention was to get line voltage out of a 9-volt battery, stop right here. Transformers only work with AC voltage, and a battery puts out DC. The other thing is, if you've got 9v AC and you feed it into a transformer that will give 1A at 9V, 0.08A at 110V will come out of the unit. Eight one-hundredths of an amp isn't really enough to do anything with. If you want to get 1A worth of 110v from 9v, you need to feed (assuming perfect efficiency in the transformer, which you will not get) 12.5A at 9v, or 25A at 9v if you have a transformer with a more likely 50 percent efficiency. It's possible to step 9v up to 110v, but it's probably not worth your time to do so.
To rewire a 220V water heater to 110V, you would need to change the heating element to one that is compatible with 110V. You would also need to adjust the wiring connections in the water heater to accommodate the lower voltage. It is recommended to consult a qualified electrician to ensure proper and safe rewiring of the water heater.
The fact that it's supposed to. Voltage is stated as the difference between the two wires carrying electricity to the load. When they bring power to the house from the utility, you get two wires carrying 110v but they're 180 degrees out of phase. Imagine one carries positive 110v and the other carries negative 110v. If you hook one of these wires plus a neutral (zero volts) to the load, you get 110v--110v over 0v. If you hook both of them to the load, you get positive 110v over negative 110v, or 220v. So...red to white is 110v, black to white is 110v, red to black is 220v.
A transformer can be used to change voltage levels. To increase voltage from 24V to 110V, a step-up transformer with an appropriate turns ratio should be used. The turns ratio required would be determined by the ratio of input (24V) to output (110V) voltages.
One word: KABOOM.
One can buy a cheap bumblebee transformer at Toys R Us. One can also buy a cheap bumblebee transformer online from Amazon, eBay, My Shopping and Argos UK.

One can buy Transformer character figures online at the following webstores: eBay, Amazon, Hasbro or any similar. One can also try local toy shops, but the toys there may be more expensive.

Sure i do
you could wire it up to a cigarette adapter and then plug it into a transformer like this one http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/travelpower/afee/
One can purchase an Auto Transformer from websites like Mastech Power Supply, Amazon, Ali Express, RS-Online, eBay, Foster Transformer, Farnell and Alibaba.
The typical price that one will pay for a lighting transformer is about $60. If you buy the lighting transformer on Amazon right now it will cost you about $57.21.
A low voltage lighting transformer can be purchased online from Amazon or from Home Depot amongst other sites. Most electrical shops and large home improvement stores will also have these transformers available to buy on site.
A European hairdryer operates on 230V. US power is 110V. The hairdryer will need a high power converter that will be fairly expensive. (110V input to 240V output rated at about 800W) It will be less expensive to buy a new one at Walmart when you get to the US than it will be to buy a converter for the European one.
There are many stores, both online and brick and mortar, that one can purchase an Optimus Prime transformer. A few of these stores are Walmart, Amazon, and eBay.
There are many places that you can buy a hand truck online. Two places that you could buy one online at Sears. Or even from Walmart online.
