Default Quick Battery Light Question

Ok, so the battery light just came on today on my '90 L98 vette. I was wondering how much time i have left until im outa juice, the needle hasn't reached the cross hairs yet but is about a quarter past empty.
I recently got a new ECM but dont have the part number at the moment, not sure if this makes a difference or not.

Just wondering how much time have, because I live in the country and I wont be able to get a new battery for a few days.
Also; I was just gonna go to Sears for the battery, would you guys recomend any other place? and what type of battery would you recomend?

Any answer to one of these questions would be greatly appreciated

It maybe a alternator. Take it to a autoparts store and have it checked.
