would a new battery and the big 3 help the situation out? or is it just prolonging the inevitable?

Definately, but it does prolong it. It could prolong it indefinately though. For the time being, try wiring all that you've got to higher impedances. Basically try to make everything put out less power for the time being.

Walmart should have the battery you want, an Everstart Maxx I believe is the name. $60 and does the same job as an Optima Red top.

Give it a few days to se what happens. If your considering replacing the alt whats the difference if this one dies?

Well maybe getting stranded or not, but other than that?
