[Equipment] Advisability of turning SIP phones' and ATAs' power on and off?

Good day. For over thirty years, I haven''t turned the power off on a computer without first shutting it off internally. For about two years, I've been using a Yealink T22P SIP phone in my office. Its power adapter is plugged in to a switched power strip. I turn the power strip on in the morning and turn it off in the evening. To date, I've had no problems with the phone. Just finished a similar set-up at home for an OBi1022 SIP phone and an OBi302 ATA. Because both devices have seldom had the power turned-off, I'm somewhat apprehensive about turning the power strip off when I go to sleep. Having enough knowledge to be dangerous, I surmise that the firmware, being read only, should not be affected by a power interruption. I'm not so sure, though, about mounted writable RAM sectors. Is this more or less correct or are their other things I should be aware of (and should not turn the power off)? Thank you.
