What is the difference between an "plain old no frills" Joye ego, and a say, an ego-T for example. Will the charger I got with my ego (1000mah) work for other types of ego models?
Question about e-go differences

From as far as I can tell, the differences between the eGo, eGo-T and eGo-C are all in the atomizer/cartridge department.
By that I mean AFAIK all the batteries are the same, can utilize the same (approved) charger and will all accept just about the same devices (though I think some adapter is needed to use the eGo-C atomizer on older batteries). Only differences between the batteries are the mAh ratings and if they are a Pass-Through or not.

The difference is that the ego-t comes with the cartridge tank system that Joye seems to be convinced is the future of vaping. It's really just an ego battery with the ego-t tank system. This is good news, because after you throw the cartridge tank system away in disgust, atleast you still have an ego battery that you can screw something that works on to.
Just to add to what's already been said a bit, the plain old Ego is essentially an Ego battery, with standard Joye 510 atomizers and carts. It's just like a 510, with longer battery life.
The Ego-T is the first of the 2 tank kits. Rather than cartridges with polyfill, it uses "tank" carts, with hold more juice. It uses a special atomizer which fits with the tank carts.
The Ego-C is very similar to the Ego-T. The carts are essentially the same, and the only difference is that rather than the atomizer and cone being a single piece (necessitating tossing the whole thing and replacing it when it goes bad, at about $15 each), the cone comes apart and a smaller, replaceable atomizer is stored within. These Ego-C atomizers can be had for around $25 for a 5-pack, so long term they are a bit cheaper than the Ego-T.
Any of the 3 use the same battery options (or nearly the same anyway), and all Ego batteries are compatible with any 510 atomizer/cartomizer/tank.
The Ego chargers are all the same as far as I have seen (4.2v 420mah output), and are all compatible with all Ego batteries (except for the passthrough cable of course, which only works with the passthrough battery). It's worth noting though that the Ego chargers are *not* compatible with standard 510 batteries, as they use a higher output current than standard 510 gear (even though they look exactly the same).

What I like about the Ego, is that one battery (250 mAh and over) goes with everything.
As far as the atomizer and juice holder, it depends on your vaping style and your taste. I use the good old atomizer (the one that fits on a 510) with a cartridge or a tank. The atomizer gives me more hit, more taste and hotter vapor for a more intense vaping, while the tank is great for driving and socializing because you don't have to refill as often. It seems to me that the eGo-T and C are pretty much the same, with the C set up being cheaper in the long run.

Just like the other guys said.
I would just like to add that there are some diferences in the batteries...
- The eGo-C battery has a 3 color battery level indicator (white, light blue, blue) wich gives you an idea of how much battery you have left. afaik eGo-T A or B batteries do not have this feature.
- The eGo-T (A or B) and the eGo-C batteries has an "on/off" feature, by pressing the button 5 times quickly. AFAIK the (plain)eGo battery does not.
But still all are compatible.

In all fairness, many (most I'd gather) people are very happy with their eGo tank systems. The eGo-C tank system is worth a try IMO, you can purchase an upgrade kit for around $10 that includes a base, cone, tank and atomizer.
