The issue is the peak current drawn when slewing - not voltage - and the ability of the source to supply that without falling below 11V. Do not increase the source voltage beyond 15V - you risk damaging the electronics in the mount and handset. It means what it says.
As one with an AZEQ6, when it’s slewing on both axes it can draw rather more than 2A briefly - I measured 4A. The little 240V/12 DC wall-wart shipped with it is inadequate and can’t supply that - the output voltage dropped below 10V and the result is the motors stall.
The solution is a dc power source that can supply a current such as 4A without dropping the voltage significantly. An easy solution is an SLA battery, capable of large currents for short periods. One with 9 or 12 amp-hours is plenty.
The other aspect is to avoid having cables running outside at night. Trip hazard and also electric shock hazard if dewy.
