Alternator??

Ok, Need opnions. I conducted a test to verify if my power drain was dued to faulty alternator or battery... While the car is running, I would turn on healamps, radio w/amp, and roll down all windows simultaneously... I would get the battery light indicator on dash and the idle would drop to almost cut-off... Once I release all four bottons for the windows the battery indicator would disappear and the idle would come back up.

I did the same test above with the exception of the battery being disconnected.

Supprisngly the car nearly shut off and I heard clicking noises under the dash, while operating four all windows...

I guess it's the alternator, but I just brought this unit from autozone, it hasnet been a year... Go figure.
