That's the first thing that came to my mind, but after some thought I understood that I got it wrong. Using two 110V heaters in series with 220V voltage would work, but not the other way around. But then, I'm just the next member here without too much understanding of electricity, who is telling Mora what won't work.
But here's an idea (don't know if it'll work): Someone with a 110V ceramic heater at home should check its resistance and post that along with the rated wattage. Then maybe Mora could find a ceramic 220V heater with similar resistance and try to use that.
Or someone who actually knows something about electricity could post so we don't all kill ourselves (and each other).
