You could also use an external resistor to drop some of the 7v before the 7805.

Or a few rectifier diodes to give a more consistent drop - eg. up to six 1N4000 series diodes or similar.
That should reduce the regulator input to somewhere around 8V on a 12V supply.
 
Or do it 'properly' and use a switch-mode regulator, you can buy tiny adjustable module ones for hardly any money from Banggood etc.

You should stick with the original thread - or we may need 20 posts again on this thread to agree on what average means in your context.
