Not sure exactly whats going on... Someone give me there opinion
Ok... I left my interior dome lights on over night one time and the cars battery died.
The next morning I was pissed off, and basically used a battery charger and charged it back up.
Everything was fine...
Then, I installed my RSX seats and I left the dome light on again but, maybe for like 4 hours. I started the car, and it was fine.
The next morning I started it but, It sounded like it almost didnt want to start.
Now, sometimes when im in heavy traffic, I can notice the guages/dash lights going dim... but, If I put the car in nutral and gas it, I notice the guages and dash get brighter.
This gets me scared because, I dont want my car to break down...
Is the altinator bad? or the battery dead? They are both OEM, Should I get a new battery?

Rep Power: 0 just bought an optima yellow top battery, so far things are working well 
A hint of advice... Pep Boys sucks. They said they dont have the kind of battery we need. I started yelling at him, and went to the back and found it myself.
