Electrical problem help!
Longish post but here is my problem;
Last week, I bought a alarm system for my Honda. Everything worked out fine with no problems. Just a few days ago, I bought a brand new battery for the car as well since I couldn't listen to my radio for longer than 20 minutes without my car having a hard time starting, and my old battery was old and worn out. Now when I left to go home from work this morning, my battery was dead.I was able to unlock my car using the alarm system and when I tryed to start the car, The starter tryed to start it once then nothing else happen. Called for a jump and everything was all good. No dim lights and my battery light wasn't even on. Got it home, shut off the car, never touched the alarm system and went to bed. I know the battery was fully charged becuase I have over a hour drive home from work. Today, I started up the car and it was all good. I drove her to the gas station. To get some gas and a lotto ticket (won on a $10 strach off $20 btw yay!) Turned the alarm on and walked into the station for less thank 5 minutes, came back to my car and tryed to start and it wouldn't start again. My alarm was able to unlock the car just like last night as well. Just like last night, my alarm was going off but it wasa very low tone since the bateery died. Hooked up my jumpper again, as soon as I did the alarm went off and I was able to drive the car like normal. Right now im at my job and my alarm is off, I guess if the car starts then it is a bad alarm but I can't image that a alarm and kill a battery of that size so fast.
What do you guys think is going on with my Honda.
Also, sorry for any and all typos as I typed this whole thing out on my cell phone lol

Just a update, I got to work, did not turn on the alarm system and left the car setting in my parking lot for about 3 hours or so. The car started up fine with no problems. I'm leaning more towards a bad alarm system vs a bad battery or alternator.
