I found a couple cheap regulator boards (<1$) that fit on top of the cell, with the same diameter, with a button top, and wrapped them together. This just seems dangerous.
I just add a blob of solder and it works quite well. Be careful to not overheat the cell though so a powerful iron is recommended for this.
