{"product_id":"vessel-core","title":"Vessel Core","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Vessel Core is the entry-level 510 thread battery in the Vessel range, delivering the brand's build quality at a competitive price point. Three voltage settings, USB-C charging, and reliable cart performance with the same machining standards as higher-end Vessels. Compatible with all standard 510 cartridges. The cart sits exposed on top of the device rather than enclosed — a more traditional design than the Compass or Craftsman. Battery life is sufficient for a couple of days of moderate use. Suited to users who want Vessel's build quality at the lowest price in the range without paying for protected cart housing or premium materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background:#f5f5f0; border-left:3px solid #1a1a1a; padding:20px 24px; margin:24px 0; border-radius:4px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color:#1a1a1a; font-weight:600; margin:0 0 10px; font-size:13px; text-transform:uppercase; letter-spacing:0.5px;\"\u003eDennis says\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color:#333; line-height:1.7; margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eThe Core is Vessel's entry-level 510 and it's the one I usually point first-time Vessel buyers at. You get the build quality the brand is known for — clean machining, proper materials, no rattles — at a price that competes with CCELL. Three voltage settings instead of four, smaller battery than the Compass, but the fundamentals are all there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color:#333; line-height:1.7; margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eIn daily use I struggle to feel the difference between this and the Compass for cartridge performance. The hits are clean, the airflow is well-tuned, the battery lasts a couple of days of moderate use. What you give up is the curved ergonomic shape and the protected cartridge housing — the cart sits exposed on top, the way most basic 510s do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color:#333; line-height:1.7; margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eFor £29 it's the Vessel that makes the most financial sense, and it's the one I'd put in the hands of someone who wants Vessel quality without the boutique pricing on the upper models. The CCELL alternatives at £19-20 are now a tenner cheaper, which used to be the same price — so if you're squeezed on budget, the Sandwave or Palm Pro will get you most of the way for less.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color:#333; line-height:1.7; margin:0;\"\u003eBuy it if you want Vessel build quality at a fair price. Skip it for the Compass if you want the protected cartridge design or the fourth voltage setting — or for a CCELL if budget is the priority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vessel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57353069232510,"sku":"VESSEL-CORE","price":29.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0790\/3435\/1905\/files\/vessel-core_1.jpg?v=1777646607","url":"https:\/\/herbvape.co.uk\/products\/vessel-core","provider":"Herb Vape","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
