12v is the critical bit....to try and keep above. My AZ EQ6 is finicky about this.

I think the mount can draw >2Amps, so get a supply with a generous spec. The mount will only draw what it needs.

I used a 15v 10amp from Jaycar which was perfect. I had DC splitter cables at the end to supply the NUC and the Camera cooler as well as the mount. So 10+amps should give some spare capacity.

In the end, I now prefer separate supplies for everything, so I can control them individually. I remote power up and operate the NUC in the daytime to get the data off etc. Don't need to power up the mount etc for that.

Cheers
