Theo told me to do a slow warm cycle at the end of the night with my QHY9 (and cool carefully at the start). I suspect it only matters if you have appreciable moisture inside the camera and trying to avoid freezing or condensation. If you have argon or plenty of dessicant then condensation shouldn't come into it, and find it hard to believe thermal shock on sensor should be an issue if you're just removing power and letting sealed chamber equilibrate. No big deal to run a warm up cycle while packing up usually.
