If I plug BMCC into 14.8v output will it draw 14.8v or 12v?

I have a BMCC with a VMount Maxoak battery with Fotga power supply/vmount splitter. The Maxoak battery says 14.8V 177Wh, 12000mAh. The Fotga vmount supply the battery is on has a 12v DC output and a 14.8v Vemo output. I know the BMCC can accept a 14.8v but what I'm wondering is: If I connect the 12v output to the camera I know it is using 12v from the battery, but if I connect the 14.8v Vemo out from the Fotga supply to the BMCC is it going to be consuming 12v or 14.8v? I just want to know if using the Vemo 14.8v output is going to end up using more of the battery unnecessarily.
I need to use the 12V DC output to power my monitor so that is the reason I am asking about this. I searched Google and on the forum here but didn't find quite this same question.
