Found 240 to 110 V converter/ transformer in Radio Bashir on Musherib St. Coordinates 25 17 06.5 and 51 31 52.4 if you have GPS and Google earth. It only cost Qr30 for the 80 watt unit.

Thanks Bu Waleed.

Now to test it on my appliance.....

Mushaireb street , there is a small old shop calls Radio Basheer , if you get into it you will find things that you never saw in any other place , and you will find those transformers

also there is a shop on Salwa road calls Ansar City , onthe left hand before qatar decoration round about , right after the petorl station , in the second floor you will find it too

Another good place to buy those step down converters is the Radio Shack store in Salam/Hyatt Mall near Lulu Hypermarket and they have another store in City Center. They have a good selection for which are very reliable.

You can find them in Carrefour, Lulu, and many other places. Be sure to buy at least 500 watts or higher
