Subject: Spooky dot when turned off

I just got my first Vectrex (Swedish model) ever today :D

It works fine and the buzz from the speakers is almost silent.

But I noticed something wierd. When I turn it off, even unplugged, after a few seconds a small faint dot appears in the center of the screen that slowly fades away. maybe there for 15-20 seconds.

Is this normal? or is something wrong. I donīt want my Vectrex to die on me :( I just waited 20 years to get one ;)

Sure is a nice way to travel back to the mid 80:s.

As you've probably figured out by now (don't know how I've missed this over the months) there shouldn't be anything wrong with it, old tvs had that dot too when shut off.
