Sure - didn't mean that I'd use duct tape to form the electrical
connection, just to sheath the soldered-together pair so the will fit in
the same slot as the old pack, within the torch's body.

Most RC model (rather than toy) shops will sell both cell sized
(diameter) heat shrink and also straps to solder across non tagged
cells (as used with many top spec and diy racing packs). However you
will really need a big iron to solder them properly.

You could also buy the cells there etc.
