Default Turnigy charging/balance plug question?

Is the Turnigy(5000/4s) balancing plug compatible with my Great Planes Triton EQ A/C D/C Charger? (Will use Dean Plugs). If not what do I use to Charge these batteries? Also is the Dynam SuperMate DC 6 Balance Charger compatible? (From Hobby Partz). Any information would be greatly appreciated especially on the balance plug compat. question. Thanks!

Guver: A lot of that was over my head. I need to know if the Supplied Balance Boards that come with Triton EQ wil work with the Turnigy Balance Plug. I'm pretty new to electric and it is a lot more involved and complicated then my glow planes were. If not compatible is their a board I can buy for use with the Trition? If not. what charger do I need? Thanks.

someone verify because I don't have any turnigy packs. They use XH and that is one board that does come with the Triton EQ.

It does not appear from looking at the manual that it includes a balance adapter for Turnigy batteries which use a JST-XH plug.

The Answer is yes! I use it right now. Remember though that you must plug in the balance plug and use the Dean at the same time. This is different than other charging systems.
