Looking around the net the answers seem contradictory. Some of
the more negative views are directly contradicted by my own

I've got a reel of solder that's been kicking around in my toolbox since
I was a television repair man, that's over 20 years ago and it still
makes good joints. It is good quality, think it's Ersin Multicore but
can't be sure as the label got shredded and lost over the years with
tools and miscellaneous junk bumping into it.
