A transformer only works on AC, so you can't use a transformer. Depending on your current requirements, you might be able to use a step-up DC-DC converter.
You can find plenty of cheap ones on eBay, but I have always had good experiences with Pololu products. Here is a 15V output converter that is rated for 6A continuous input current.
You are correct, the term "transformer" is technically incorrect.
Thank you for the link. The device looks promising.
