seem like a wonky thing to do.
I disagree about "wonky" let me try with more
diagram and less English:
(+8)

VIN| ceramic cap
|-----][-----
___|____ |
| 7805 |----------GROUND
-------- |

VOUT|(+5) |

___|____ |
| LOAD |-------|
--------
+8 is not currently available (no pun intended).
I would like to test LOAD without removing 7805
as it is soldered in place. Is damage to 7805
likely if alternative regulated current is applied
at (+5) and (+8) is left open?
