Default New alternator

I put 4 kc lights (unkown power draw) on my light bar and when the engines running and i turn the lights on the battery level hardly moves so they must not draw much. So will i have to get a new alternator to run my lights effeciently?

I run 4 55w lights plus my stock lights and the heat blasting and I have no problems using the stock alt. The fact that it doesn't move the gauge much means that the alt. you have is plenty to run those lights.
