It's usually not very difficult to find transformers that will bring the 220V to 110V for your equipment. They come in a variety of sizes, depending what power capacity you need. You could then use a power supply you already have, needing at most an adaptor for the plug type. Granted, that adds a box, but that's usually not a deal-breaker.
