No prob
Grease nutts are better faster and cheaper.
The grease in them prevents water from getting in.

Faster and cheaper I would agree, but no thanks, not for me. I'm sure they can work, but I couldn't justify the silicone wire nuts being stronger, safer or more permanent in my mind than this method for a one time diy project. Also wire nutting 12awg solid core wire sucks in general even in electrical boxes.
