Default separate Balancer and Charger for LiPo

Hi,
I'm considering buying the following separate Balancer and Charger for LiPo's for charging 2100mah 3 cell 11.1v packs:

Balancer:
http://www.electrifly.com/chargers/gpmm3160.html

Charger:
http://www.dynamiterc.com/Products/D...ProdID=DYN4058

As far as I can tell, they are compatible. Balancer manual suggests certain models of chargers, but it also says relating to compatibility, use with "LiPo chargers and dischargers ONLY (operation based on nominal cell voltage of 3.7V per cell)". Charger manual does not say anything good or bad about using a Balancer with it. Connections look like they will match up.

I have no experience with LiPo's... is there any possibility or reason that these two devices might not be compatible? Anything particular to look for in how each operates?

Thanks
