An evod is a juice holder as it were, an ego is a battery.
Looking at the JacVapour website, it looks as though the Vgo is what they call their batteries. They look like similar to egos, lots of vendors rebrand generic batteries with their own names. So, I would say they are similar and may even be identical underneath.
Don't know if that helps, I don't know of anyone who has used a JacVaper product so can't help further.

Right lets sort this out once and for all, What is known to you as the vGo2, is An ego battery with a Boge type cartomiser and a cone cover to make it look nice.
Disregarding the battery as its almost standard across all Rebranded kits you are left with the cartomiser / cone combo, you can forget the cone as thats just decorative.
Now we come to the Important bit Evod or Cartomiser? For me, evods win every time, cartomisers can give good results but are pretty limited, evods hold more juice, are easier to clean out so you can swap juices and have replaceable heads.
Initially carto's look cheaper per unit - but wait until one blows its coil just after you've filled it - you lose that juice forever, with an evod you tip it upside down, unscrew the old head and fit a new one, the juice stays in the tank and all you lose is the little bit in the head, same thing for swapping juices, with a carto you'll either have to spend ages washing it out, letting it dry then refilling or use a new one.
Evods are much easier to deal with after the first attempt, To change juices you can empty the tank into a bottle if its not empty, then rinse it and the head under a tap, dry with some kitchen towel refill and vape all while still waiting for the carto to dry...
Both carto's and evods are bottom coil, but top or bottom coil is a personal choice and can even change from juice to juice...

I have only just got my first pro tank 2 and before I had the ce4 all I can say is there is just no comparison, the pro tank is way better than the ce4, I have only been using them a week and already my first ce4 had broken, at least with the pro tank I can change the bits and I had to throw away a whole 1,6 mls of juice when my ce4 broke which upset me no end, I now have a spinner and a pro tank, it is a lot more bulky and I will probably stick to my starter kit of ce4 and vgot battery when I go out, but at home will use my spinner and yes I am home more than out

I switched from ce4s to an evod and the difference is massive, the evod is an amazing bit of kit and so easy to rebuild the wicks if you take the plunge. go my shinney new pro tank 2 yesterday ( thanks to MrKraken once again) and love it.... i will still use the evods as i like to carry a few on me so i have a choice of what vapor to smoke the room out with be it at work or at home.

Aaah.. Good to know so many votes for the evod.. Faced a glitch today though.. May be due to excessive vaping? I was vaping almost continuously for 10-15 mins creating clouds of vapour in the room and the metal bit which holds on to the coil heated up way too much to hold on to. Kept it aside for a while and tried to Vape but it wouldn't work. Realised that the wick / coil might have burnt out cuz there was enough juice in the tank and battery. So changed the coil and wick set. Now back to normal. Has it happened to any of u or is it just me? Hope not!
