I am wondering if you can get temps below 100 degrees without having to turn it on and off manually for long periods of time?

Yes, just open up the door a crack. The problem is the element will keep cycling on and trying to add more heat to get up to the temp set on the dial.
Cycling is the preferred method according to CS.

I have not tried this, but am wondering if you could hook up a hose to the top vent on the 008 and have it connected to a separate box enclosure of some sort...would that work?
Do a search. Someone recently posted a home-made cold smoker addition to an 08/09. They actually built a box made of wood to hold Cookshack racks that sat on top of the smoker. I believe he set a pan of ice on top of the smoker (not blocking the top vent of course) and cold smoked cheese. Said it was fantastic. It looked pretty cool. Temp never got above 90*.
