i had a similar problem...first when i got the alarm installed my starter wasn't receiving power, when i took it back to the dude he said he didnt link the alarm to the starter which was true...i ended puttin a switch button that was directly connected to the starter...now the fact that your battery maybe getting draining is something you have to check with a voltage meter...with that you could monitor if it drops when the car is off...my problem was that the pulley was too big because you have to consider gear ratios..the bigger the pulley the less revolutions it makes...i had to get a really small pulley to make enough energy to keep the battery on a optimum range...as a rule of thumb if your voltage reads at 11 or lower on idle and jumps only to 11.5 or 12V the max when revving, then it's the pulley...after i changed my pulley to a smaller(2 belt sizes smaller) my idle voltage jumped to 12V and to 13.9 on revving. i also increased my idle to 1000rpm to be on the safe side
