A strain-resistant electrical connection and a method of making the same is provided. An antenna () or other conductive lead is connected to a circuit () in a manner that makes the connection more resistant to mechanical stresses such as movement or rotation of the antenna () or conductive lead relative to the circuit (). The antenna () or conductive lead is at least partially coiled to provide additional ability to withstand mechanical stresses. The antenna () or conductive lead may be encase along with is connected circuit in an elastomeric material.
