Board to Board compression connection

Board to Board compression connection

Board to Board compression connection

(OP)
Hi,
 I am looking for a compression connector for a board to board type of connection.  Something similar to the Dustbuster charging connection when you plug it back into it's stand.  I need them to be large and able to be widely seperated.  Most of what I am finding is either small pitch smt connector (with mating cycles < 100) or coax connectors.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Thanks for the response.  The pogo pin connectors came the closest but I think I am looking for beryllium copper contacts from a metal stamping place.  That way I can get them large enough to handle the side to side variation when the lid is closed.
