12.3v is unloaded so you can expect that number to drop under load. Better to extend the AC and use the shorty on the DC side.
In the States (120V) 20 guage lamp cord is both sufficient and lightweight. In Europe and abroad (230-250V) it may make more sense to use an adapter that has higher voltage to mitigate the effects of DC line loss.
While the DC range is not published for the 12k it’s a safe assumprion that you’ll be good to about 16v as that’s the upper limit of fully charged V-locks.
Good Luck
