    Regular as in the little ones? I'm not sure what they are but they sure do draw some voltage.

    Check the alternator with a voltmeter, just because the alternator is "new", doesn't mean it's charging properly.

    I recently had this problem. After talking to a few friends I found that the battery cut off switch in the battery box was causing the problem I disconnected it and wired directly to the batteries My problem was gone.
