Testing out a new connector style.
These also required a 3D printed holder for the full test.
Underneath that tape are slots that hold some magnets.
Like so!
The intent is to try to get them to mate cleanly.
The pogopin connectors are these:

Part numbers PGF25002 and PGF25004.
Spoiler:
They really don't work all that well. The plastic in them melts like butter if they get so much as a peek at a soldering iron, the spring contacts are too stiff to be compressed by any small magnet, and the females sticking out like that result in huge problems trying to get alignment right.
I think I'm going to try something else.
