Brake light comes on and then goes out

My brake light comes on in the mornings and stays on for about 15 minutes and then goes out, for the most part, after that. I say for the most part because it comes on when i hit my brakes.

Before anyone says check the brakes, I have. I have had new brakes put on the front and back, along with new calipers, over the past 10 months. can anyone help me figure this out? Thanks.

Check your brake fluid level, and your parking brake handle.

If you didn't do the brakes yourself, there not telling that the fluid is full, or that there isn't a slow leak at one of the brake bleeders.
