Default Battery light

I'm just curious if anyone has experienced there battery light illuminating for a couple secs when they turn off there car. My alternator seems to harhe my battery just fine. I use to have a parasitic drain which was coming from the central locking relay which has been replaced. Any input would be great.
Thanks

Talking

I think they all do that. I know mine does. One prior to that did too. As the motor spins down and rpm falls quickly there is enough current to warning lights to trip the light since the alternator is turning so slow. Not sure why that is and seems like oil pressure would stay like that too but ah, its a Volvo.
