Make sure your TV is being properly powered down, and it is not in a
standby mode.

The Plasma TV uses phosphors in the lumination cells. The phosphor in
the cells is activated by UV rays that is generated from effect of the
gas being ionized. After switching off, these cells may glow for a few
minutes. The glowing effect should fade over a number of minutes
until the next time the set is used.

Some CRT sets will have phosphor glow for a few minutes after
switching off. You can see this effect in a darkened room.

We just got a new Plasma TV last night. We had the TV on for about 5
hrs and then turned off and went to bed. There was a strange glow on
it. I thought it was just the electrons going down the energy levels
and emitting some phospherescence or sthng???
Anyway, I woke up at 5 30 AM and it was still glowing..
ANyone know why?
