It's not all that uncommon for the rpm's to drop a bit when draw is placed on an electrical system. Defrosters use a ton of juice.

It woudl be worth having it tested, but I wouldn't worry too much. Next time when you're drivving at night, press your window button to go up when the window is closed, you'll notice the lights dim when you do this.
