I seem to be having some problems with hooking up the L7805CV Regulator. When I provide it 12 V @2 A I seem to be getting an output value of 10.xx V?
What could I be doing incorrectly? Does it matter that the power supply is 2 A and the Regulator is 1.5 A?

I have my photo below hooked up looking at it from the back.
What would I be doing incorrectly?
