Answer 1

Step down transformer would do it for u. SORRY paulo didn't read your answer

Answer 2

i can answer that second part. a step down transformer is a device that lowers the incoming voltage to an amount for a particular appliance. battery chargers and almost all appliances have some form of a step down transformer. on a larger scale, those big can looking things on power lines are step down transformers. they lower huge voltage amounts to the amount, 220, that enters our houses, (us of a that is).

something about this whole question bothers me. almost all 220 outlets require a 220 plug. whatever you do, dont plug a 110 appliance into a 220 plug. in the us of a, 220/240 comes into the house and is split into a bunch of 110/120 outlets and a few 220 outlets. this whole question confuses me. if the outlet looks like a normal outlet, plug in the lamp and it will work. dont plug the lamp into the clothes dryer outlet and you will be ok.

Answer 3

Use the 110v outlet?? Or buy a stepdown xformer.
