Step-Down Transformer?
By The Professiona... •
Hello ...
We're departing for Qatar in several days for a stay of several years. We've already sent along some of the electronics and kitchen items that we just can't live without. As we're from the U.S., all of these items are 110V. It's too late for me to chase anything down here. So my question is this: where can I buy a step-down transformer in Qatar? In case that's an unfamiliar term, a step-down transformer is, evidently, a heavy thing that changes 220V to 110V and is constructed to handle delicate electronics.
Does anyone know where I can buy something like this in Qatar?
Thanks in advance.
...made in China ... hihihi
Qatar is not a backward country Transformers are available in most of the Electronic shops dotted all over Doha .

I bought a transformer last week from Radio Shack. QR125 (35 bucks) for a 1000W jobbie with stabilizer built in. Sometimes they are refered to by the brand name = STAC in case the shop doesn't understand.

ok...you can finde the transformer in (Al-Asmakh S.T.) near to the roundabout behind (Souq-Waqif),there are many electronics and electrical stores like: Radio Basheer & Al-Ennabi stores.
also you may ask about Radioshack store "which has a branch in Al-Moul and many other branches in Doha" and i have already bought a 60 watt step-down transformer from there.
in all cases don't forget to choose the suitable transformer's maximum rated power.
goodluck and wellcome to Qatar
