Has anyone tried using "rescue tape" instead of heat-shrink on battery cables?

Rescue Tape - World's #1 Brand of Silicone Tape!

Rescue Tape . . .
• Is Self-Fusing!
• Incredible 950 PSI Tensile Strength!
• Insulates 8,000 Volts per layer!
• Withstands 500° F Degrees of heat!
• Remains flexible to -85° F! (-60° C)
• Fastest-fusing and Strongest Silicone Tape available on the market!

Rescue Tape . . .
• Creates a Permanent Air-Tight, Water-Tight Seal in seconds!
• Has an unbelievably long shelf life!
• Is extremely versatile!
• Resists Fuels, Oils, Acids, Solvents, Salt Water, Road Salt, UV Rays
• Never gets gummy or sticky like electrical tape, duct tape or other repair tape- No messy cleanup!

I bought some at the RV Super Show in Tampa two weeks ago. Guy pitching said its great for battery cables and other high amp applications.

Thoughts?

BTW ... your truck really, really looks nice.
