A non-soldered conductive connection terminal and a strobe light unit including the terminal are provided, wherein the terminal can be used, when the discharge tube is installed, in order to minimize the stress applied to an electrode of a discharge tube, generated by a drift of position of the electrode on a body of the discharge tube. [Means for Solving the Problem] A terminal (33) according to the present invention includes an electrode gripping part (332) having a groove or a slot (335) for receiving an electrode (151) of a discharge tube (15); a fixed part (333); and a deformable part (334) for connecting the electrode gripping part (332) to the fixed part (333). The deformable part (334) is generally U-shaped, and includes a first end (334a) connected to the electrode gripping part (332) and a second end (334b) connected to the fixed part. The first and second ends (334a and 334b) are configured such that these ends can be moved relative to each other in a direction generally perpendicular to a center axis of the discharge tube (15) and in a direction generally perpendicular to a depth direction of the slot.
