Electronic – Why voltage decrease in battery when more current is drawn from it

batteriescurrentvoltage

I have a load which needs around 12V and 6.5A. When I connect a 12V battery pack with 4400mah capacity with no load then the output voltage shown is 12.3V but when I connect my load the voltage tends to drop to 10.4 V. I assume the reason is because of internal resistance, but still I am not sure. Can anyone help me out here? Apart from this is there any other way to retain the same voltage to draw the same current rate, so the power remains same?

Looks like its internal resistance, from your measurements its value is around 0,3 ohm, which seems reasonable. I don't know about any method you can compensate that.
