Where to buy a 12V hair dryer?

Could somebody please let me know where I might buy a 12V hair dryer in Sydney (Western subs or Penrith)? Do these units have a standard DC inlet plug or do they come with a car ciggarette lighter port?.
Cost...?

Also, I have used hairdryers (240V) to clear my EP's and finderscope before....
Q: But how do you de-fog the primary mirror on a 12" tube dob?
I did think that you could warm the entire mirror from behind but that would undo the previous hours work in trying to cool the mirror to ambiant temp!

Thoughts.
