Claim:
1. An electrical device connection system, comprising: a first electrical device having a first surface and an opposing second surface, a first tensioned electrical connector attached to said first surface, and first electrical contacts disposed on said second surface; wherein: said first electrical device is formed to include a first aperture extending therethrough; a first end of said first tensioned electrical connector is attached to said first surface adjacent said first aperture; a second electrical device having a third surface and an opposing fourth surface, a second tensioned electrical connector attached to said third surface, and second electrical contacts disposed on said fourth surface; wherein: said second electrical device is formed to include a second aperture extending therethrough; a first end of said second tensioned electrical connector is attached to said third surface adjacent said second aperture; wherein: said first device and said second device have a facing relationship such that said first surface faces said third surface; a second end of said second tensioned electrical connector extends into, through, and outwardly from, said first aperture; said second end of said second tensioned electrical connector is in electrical contact with said first electrical contacts disposed on said first surface, thereby establishing electrical connection between said first device and said second device; said second end of said second tensioned electrical connector exerts a compressive force in a first direction on said first device, thereby mechanically attaching said first device to said second device; a second end of said first tensioned electrical connector extends into, through, and outwardly from, said second aperture; said second end of said first tensioned electrical connector is in electrical contact with said second electrical contacts disposed on said fourth surface, thereby establishing electrical connection between said first device and said second device; said second end of said first tensioned electrical connector exerts a compressive force in a second and opposing direction on said second device, thereby mechanically attaching said first device to said second device.
