lmgtfy eh? hehe yes i felt about as dumb when i read the reply - touche'.  My concern at this point would be the twin black thick wires as compared to the singular thinner power lead.  I can MM the +5 and Ground pins with minimal difficulty.

One of these days the damned pictures will post gosh durnit - Haven't hooked her up to my Pi yet, but the +5VDC has been cut on the inbound line, and is only powered by the soldered leads.  Continuity testing confirms that all joints are isolated and continuous with original +5VDC input solder point, and no continuity between any other non-power solder joints, there are no bridges.
