I'm just wondering if anybody has devised a method of cooling the vapor more? I am noticing that the warm air is irritating my airways. I don't really want to use a water device because I am usually on the go when I use the box. I can't think of anything to try but somebody else has.

Adding a whip to the box may help in that regard, other users with whips can chime in maybe? In either case I think you'd achieve a noticeably cooler hit owing to the longer vapor path....can't say for sure, certainly worth a try IMO.
I've tried native, with stem, and with whip and I unfortunately get the same irritation. It's a trade-off for me as I have to decide between comfort or mobility. That is why I just use the box when mobility and/or stealth is required. For me it's a fair trade-off to get the great results that the LB delivers at a relatively small price of a little irritation.

You said "no" to water, but there are small test tube-like water pipes that could probably be fitted to a whip. Shot in the dark, not really an endorsement though I have considered it for myself.
A technique I use that helps is not to draw from my lungs. I'll pull the vape slow with just my mouth like I'm using a straw. Then I inhale fresh air through my nose while gently forcing the vapor into my lungs with my mouth. Doesn't go as deep but it burns a lot less.

Deep,
This charger does everything it is supposed to very well. Charge rate of 500mah is for 4 at a time. 1000 mah for 2 at a time. I have the C204FA (same specs) and all I charge are 2700 hsd and 2400 lsd batteries. I have had it for close to a year and it has been flawless. So you need to charge 2 or 4 at time, bfd. Smart chargers with individual circuits for each cell cost about twice as much to do the same thing. For what I use it for (vape power) it serves the purpose exceedingly well including reconditioning batteries I thought were no longer useful.
Next time you slam a product do so from a position of personal experience rather than rumor and innuendo.

chucku, he also labeled the LaCrosse BC-700 as trash and a "turd" which is ridiculous, but one thing that he did mention above that is of a bit of a concern and that is that this charger only charges batteries in pairs. It's pretty likely that you will put two or more batteries in the charger that have a different amount of charge still in them, so what happens is either one of the batteries will get overcharged, or one of the batteries will come off the charger without a complete charge. This isn't too much of an issue if you use your batteries in applications which require two batts because typically, they will discharge to the same level, but in a LaunchBox where you are using one battery at a time, it could become an issue as you could be putting two unbalanced batts in the charger.
How much of an issue all depends on how much you care about such things for all it really means is that you may not be putting a battery into your LB that is totally full, and/or you may be putting a bit of extra wear and tear on your batts. To many, that wouldn't be a big deal, and in that case, calling this charger a "shit" charger like he did, or calling the BC-700 a turd like he did is nothing but ramblings from a C9000 fanboy (although the C9000 is a great charger). It's that whole, "my charger is the best and everything else is crap and if you don't make the same purchasing decision that I did, then you are an idiot", mentality, especially with the negative labels that are being tossed around.
edit:
The concern about missing terminations due to lower than ideal charge rate is really only a concern if you are using low quality batts or batts that are very old. If you are charging batts at below .3C and those batts are nearing the end of their life cycle, it would be best to keep an eye on them and if they are are being charged longer than what your calculated charge should be, or they start getting a bit too warm, you can pull them off.

I have a fluorescent desk light at work, and all day I hit the box at my desk and blow it into the light to have the satisfaction of seeing the vapor. My co-workers trip out on the fact of how much comes out with nothing they can smell. ( I know... visible vapor is wasted vapor.. yadda, yadda.) I like to see visible vapor, and while it may well be a waste, if you blow a huge vapor cloud, the effects are noticeably more intense.

I also use the C204FA and it works great for me, I have had mine for a little over 6 months and it gets used at least once a week. I think for the price it can't be beat. I charge the same batts you do with it as well.
Hi!
I picked the Launch Box last week at a local shop when the power went out for a couple days at home. And it was good.
The coffee grinder arrived this morning and it got better. A lot better, my four piece just wasn't as smooth.
Then the power adapter arrived this afternoon, surprise! And it got a Whole lot better.
I think I will just skip the maha 2700 batteries, the maha 900 supercharger.. and just roll with the two that came with it and their cute lil' charger, if I ever decide to go out again...
And what's going on with the thread? I feel like I'm emerging from some primitive green internet jungle or something now that I've come to the end. Its good though

I got my PA today and have to say that all the raves it has received are legit. Since the charge going into the box is consistent, you get great hits every time. This is not to say that you can't get equally good hits off of batteries, but as the batteries discharge, or get older, the hits are not consistent from the start of a session to the end. I would also think that the learning curve for the hit technique would diminish with the PA since you draw at the "normal" speed you would draw from a pipe. IMO, another plus is that the danger of combusting is also diminished since the danger of leaving a battery in is negated. AND, you don't waste battery power during a cleaning cycle. A big 
for this addition to the LB. Thanks Magic Flight for making a great vape even greater.
