Tim, In most cases you can split the hot leads on the 240v outlet into two 120v circuits. There are adapter pigtails for this if you don't want to hardware it.

I need to put a UPS there so I just looked for a 240v UPS with the right plugs but because they are made for a lot larger load they were way bigger (and more expensive) than what I was looking for.
