Yes, it's probably the capacitor taking time to discharge. Incidentally, I'm in the Commercial Fire Safety business and I believe the residential recommendation is to replace your detectors every 10 years. On the commercial side, we clean and test detectors on a scheduled basis. Residentially, the assumption is that does not happen and replacing them after 10 years is best.

Replace your batteries at least once a year!!!
