Have you added anything lately?
Have the alternator, wiring and belt checked by the the place that installed it.
Check the battery connections. Are they tight? Are they corroded?
If there is a short somewhere it my be difficult to find. You may have to take it to a mechanic.
One more thing you can do is at night start the car turn everything on and shut the car off. Get out and walk around the car to be sure nothing stayed on. Do the same inside.
Good luck!

Make sure you check for moisture spots around the battery. It may be leaking and it might not be holding a charge. Make sure the terminals are cleaned and very tight on the ends. Sometimes, the end needs put on better. It may be your alternator draining your battery. You can check like this. Start your car and take the hot side battery terminal off. If it dies instantly, your alternator is bad. You will usually see dimming lights outside and in the cab. Scan the battery wires. Make sure nothing is loose.
