The main advantage of 230 vs 115 is that smaller size wire is necessary, or longer runs can be made with the same size. Fewer amps must flow for the same wattage of power, because the voltage is higher.
Whether it is 115 or 220 volts, don't attempt it unless you know what you are doing. 115 vac can kill you just as well as 220vac. A 220 volt line is just two 115 volt lines, connected to different phases of the 2-phase power input. Making a 220 volt line is like making a 115 volt line two times. Same skills. Same hazards.
