Default Interior lights flutter under throttle.

I just got my SS last week and drove it for the first time at night and noticed the dash, radio and steering wheel lights flutter under throttle. At idle, nothing is wrong, it stays as it should. Any ides on what this could be?

Alternator or crappy battery

Im sure the SS takes more power than a regular v6 like my cars, but never hurts to have a high performance battery

Thanks, I read the post, went into the garage and the negative terminal is loose. Tomorrow I will tighten it up and that I hope should solve the problem.
