A one wire alternator won't charge until the first time the motor reaches 1800 to 2000 RPM but I believe he said he had an alternator with an external regulator.
I agree with the others who said to check connections and the belt. If that doesn't fix the problem it's time to have the alternator checked out by a repair shop.
