Wire nuts in DC? [RE-wrenches]

[Travis Creswell, Ozark Solar]

Bill,

What about filling the wire nut with No-Ox grease?

About the "instructions with wire nuts".  A few months ago (after 10 years
of installing them) I finally read the instructions that come with wire nuts
and they said "pre-twisting unnecessary".  I looked around the shop at
several other boxes (actually 500 and 1000 count bags) and none of them said
anything about pre-twisting.  I thought that was pretty funny.
