I would be checking out the belt for a polished or loose one. I test
for a polished belt by taking a cold off engine and seeing if I can hand
slip the alternator pulley. If I can, the belt is polished up and won't
grab under load so the battery only gets a surface charge.
If the belt is loose, the crank pulley needs a washer moved from the
center to the outside I believe.
A test with a meter is in order if that isn't it.
