SOLVED - Headlights pulsing.

I am out of town, and my wife sent me a text to tell me that the headlights on the X5 are pulsing. The dash lights are doing the same thing. After a few searches, it looks like the recommendations are either alternator or battery. The battery seems to start the car fine, and the alternator was rebuilt about 2 years ago. I do not know how old the battery is, but I would guess it has to be at least three years. Right now I'm thinking I should just replace the battery. Any opinions? Have any of you experienced this?
