My oldest device dates from November 2015 and is the first nautilus Mini I ever bought - it's still going strong and gets used one day a week in my rotation.
For Christmas 2015 I got an istick 30W which was my second istick and it again is still in regular use.
My first iStick bought in November 2015 gave up the ghost finally this Winter gone after it dropped out of my pocket YET AGAIN in Spain.

So, you have been using your ecig, the same one, for two years?
Or are you saying you have the first type of ecig made, the oldest type and you somehow got it and have been using it for two years.
And/or, are you asking us, how long is the longest we have used the same, ours we first purchased, ecig for?
Yes to any of the above?
The amusement never ends
If I stopped exploring the different ways to vape the gear I use would get older faster.
Wut??

Vaping is an evolutional process. There's always new products with improved features waiting to be purchased. My first vape was a Joye 510 back in 2010. You had to drip drops of juice into a small mouthpiece with cotton inside and refill it as needed. When you put that piece back in it pressed against a mesh style coil head.
It wasn't long before I felt led to pluck down some cash on an eGo for the increased battery life and juice capacity. The eGo used sealed fountain pen style plastic juice cartridges that were pierced by a tube in the mod. Later we discovered that they were refillable with a needle tip bottle.
A couple of years later I realized that a Kayfun Lite V2 would relieve me of the continuing cost of atomizer coil purchases, so I bought one and started winding my own coils and wicking them with cotton.
The technical progression continues. Now, we have PODS, but most of us are still winding our own coils and making our own wicks using Cotton or Rayon. Mesh is now popular again. The technology progresses.

One thing I wish I got into sooner would be DIY for my ejuice. I would have saved so much money for all those years I have been vaping. Money I could have spent on new gear. 
I've got several Vammos, still new in the box. Not even sure which versions, I know one of them is a V2.
I remember thinking (when I bought it), wow, 20w. Then I think a 30w (?) came out and I thought I'll never need to vape that high.
I also have some other new in box 'vintage' equipment. I'm going to hang on to mine, nice to have it in another 20 years and look back on things. They've already changed so much though.
I remember finally killing off my Innokin MVP, the battery finally gave out on it. The 'tube' mod I used the most back then was my Joytech Evic. I remember thinking how cool it was I could set the time on it. Not even sure how many watts it is (maybe 20?), but it still works great. Was a big fan of the Itaste SVD as well. Have one very well used one, and another still in the box. Of course those were major/nice mods compared to the Kanger EVOD batteries and spinners. I've still got some of the original EVOD batteries and toppers new in box as well. Wonder if those EVODs will even take/hold a charge at this point.
My how things have changed.
Mine, too. iSticks have been reliable compact vapes. I have the 20W, 30W, and the TC40W. All are years old. I still get long vape times at 10W from their internal LiPo batteries.

Lovely to see that I'm not the only one still getting life out of these ISticks - they said they'd only so many recharges in them so mine should have died the death quite a while ago...but I've used them as carefully as I could, never ran then to empty, never used them above 8 watts, and left them to cool down after recharging and they just seem to go on and on - my original one that died last winter had survived being knocked off the bedside table onto a marble floor several times, at least half a dozen times being knocked off the table in outside restaurants onto pavements but gave up the ghost after falling out of my pocket getting off a bus descending from a high step and it fell into a gutter.

I consider the atty as the heart of the vape, so all my RDA's are near unbreakable and will probably be functional after I'm long gone.
