Anyone with an EHuge you can use this 'O' Ring method.or if your original whitw 'O' ring popped out. The only thing I did differently was to remove the battery then remove the trim ring and then take out all the small Phillips head screws that hold the power module in place. Things get a little sloppy now so be careful. The positive pin has a small wire connecting it to the power module. Carefully from underneath without damaging the wore or connection push the positive pin up. There's just enough slack in the wire to be able to carefully examine the positive pin. It has a shoulder design. If it was originally designed with a nylon shoulder type washer the installation would have been perfect.

Any way carefully slip the 'O' Ring over the larger diameter top portion of the positive pin. Now start to reassembly buy starting to seat the positive pin back in position it's not going to want o go back in easily. Just get it lowered enough so from underneath you can see that the thin wire and connection point are not going to be crimped when you do the final assembly and replace all the Phillips head screws. If all looks good replace all the screws.

Now start to get the positive pin back in position. Don't be too aggressive the goal here is to get it centered in position and somewhat static (not moving around alot). Take a tank and slowly screw it on to the connector don't screw it all the way down.after you feel some contact with the positive pin take the tank off to make sure the pin looks like it is going straight down. If it is put the tank back in and continue to snug the positive pin down taking the tank off often to check the progress. If you start to see the 'O' ring starting to spread or deform you pushed the pin down as far as you should. Screw your tank back on and make a mental not of how much pressure is required to just get the tank snug against the pin. This is the most you should ever tighten the tank otherwise the 'O' ring will once again be forced out and you're back at square one. You can replace the battery and if it's a EHuge or equivalent check your coil resistance.

Once I fixed my EHuge whenever I replace my tank I lightly sung the tank on check coil resistance and vape the day away.
