Described herein is an electrical connector. One embodiment takes the form of an electrical connector that includes a pogo-pin connector having: a pogo-pin-connector longitudinal axis, a first end compressible along the pogo-pin-connector longitudinal axis, and a second end; and a leaf-spring connector having: a leaf-spring-connector longitudinal axis, a first end that is mechanically and electrically connected to the second end of the pogo-pin connector at a junction point, and a second end that comprises a contact portion; wherein when the pogo-pin connector and the leaf-spring connector are connected, (i) the pogo-pin-connector longitudinal axis and the leaf-spring-connector longitudinal axis are substantially parallel and (ii) the contact portion of the leaf-spring connector is configured to exert a force substantially normal to the substantially parallel longitudinal axes.
