hi folks,
Is there anyway 2 knw if i have a bad battery or a bad alternator? my car keeps dying overnight and runs beautifully once boosted. I turn it off for a few hours come back .. struggles to start and then stops responding completely.

I am going to say that its your battery dude. If it were your alternator your car would start then die a little ways down the road. But since you say you charge it then run your car then after you shut it off it won't turn over that makes me lean towards the battery.
