Hi all. I have a 94 850 with a new battery. here' the story

Last week, went to start the car after it had sat for the weekend. Lights came on but they were low. Tried to start and nothing happened. Pulled the trusty 97 up next to it and jumped it, started like a champ! let is charge up, drove it around the block several times and then went on my way. The car acted normal for 2 days tne the battery was dead so I replaced it. Now 2 weeks later, the battery is dead again and I had to jump it!!

Sound like an alternator problem? ( i hope!) and not one of those electrical "gremilns"?

Thanks for the help, as always
