Voltage drop is minimally impacted by battery size, it only helps in that the battery would have less usage, but it still ages for time passing.

That makes the job easier! Just cut the battery in half. Let's say the original battery could handle 5 amps before the voltage drop got too bad. If a half-size battery can handle 4 amps, and you put in two of them, now you can handle 8 amps.
