Default balancing while charging... inline vs separate

hey guys,

ok my question is which is better to balance using the balance in line with charger or charge and then balance externally... to clear it up i have a regular charger and then a seperate unit which balances my lipo 2s packs (equinox from electrifly) which can be used in line with the charger and balance while charging at three amps...

problem is that's a little slow as the packs are 5000mah so i wanted to know would it be fine if i charged the packs directly and attached the balancer to the leads and let it bleed whichever battery was higher keeping them balanced?

i know my explanation is sort or confusing i'll post some pics in if i can find my camera

cheers,
-Jim
