Then it happened. It quit charging and battery went dead. From 14v to 12v after running AC 30 minutes or so. Got new Battery. It's like something is overheating the alternator. Too much draw from the AC?

It charges fine till I start running the AC. Then after 30 minutes or so the meter on dash goes from 14 to 12. Then after the car cools down it is 14 again. Could the AC draw too much? Thanks
