If you take a ceap 12v to 110 ac power inverter from Radio Shack and tack a
24-30 volt bell transformer with a rectifier and filter on the output you
could make your own 12v to 24 volt dc converter for about $20-$30 dollars.
Ask Jim Weir if he can come up with a project ;-)

Keep watching Ebay, I picked up a 12 and a 24 as a package for $18,
