Battery/Alternator issue potentially? Please help

[amitmishra4]

So I did some more comprehensive tests and here are the results:

Battery Voltage with car sitting overnight: 12.2 V (seems slightly low but it is a brand new battery and the car hasn’t been taken out in over 2 weeks)
Battery Voltage when car starts up: 13.6-13.8V (Last night it was 13.6 and this morning it came up and showed 13.8 V actually)
Battery Voltage when the car has been running for a few minutes on idle: 13.6 V
Battery Voltage when headlights and blower are turned on: 13.4 V

Never went over 14V in my testing but do you think that if I drive it around a little and charge the battery more, it will? Or jut rev higher? If I had another person looking at it, it would be easier.

Interesting Observation: Not sure if this is normal, but I hear a slight hum from the front left side I suppose with the car turned off even and it goes away when I disconnect the battery. Is that normal?

I was not able to do the load test you asked for Jager because I was not sure what you really meant:

Turn the car on and hit the load button on tester with the (-)ve connected to chasis?
Or
Turn the car on and load using headlights and blower on with (-)ve connected to chasis?
Or
Leave the car off and do either of the above?

Thanks for all the support. What a great community. I hope that I can be of help to someone else in the future as well.
