Default Power out Vs supply voltage

Hi,
If a rig is being supplied from a DC source, what would you expect
if that supply was only giving the minimum specified voltage for the
rig. Would you expect full rated output power or would you only expect
that at the nominal supply voltage?
E.g. the IC746PRO is rated at 100W. The nominal supply is 13.8V +/-15%
The manual does not state what the power out is at the lower limit.
What have others measured?
