There seems to be something wrong - I went looking and was able to easily find 220v adapters for 110v appliances, i.e. North American appliances can be used in Europe/Asia.
However, I haven't been able to find anything that does the reverse i.e. enable an Indian 220v appliance to be used in North America 110v.
An electronics store owner told me that it's easy to bring down 220v to 110v, however, nothing exists that can increase 110v to 220v.
Surely, I am missing something.

Greetings,
I need a voltage converter/adapter for 220v to operate a cell phone charger.
Where is the best place in the GTA (preferably West) to get this?
Online is fine too (haven't been able to find it in TigerDirect).
Thanks.
