battery light appears for a second sometimes?

The battery light appears for a second sometimes and the lights dim for that amount of time while driving. This happens only sometimes when i give it gas at low rpms and the car bogs slightly.
I tried to get my alternator checked at autozone but they were too busy today.
Im pretty sure its the alternator but i wanted to see what others thought.

Its the alternator. It could either be the rotor, or the rectifier. Usually if its the rectifier, it will just burn out, so im guessing its the rotor, which means it cannot be repaired. New alternator time!
