That charger will charge them fine as long as that battery fits in the SC600, a very tight fit can eventually cause you problems.
AW 3100's fit fine in my SC600, newest version with lanyard hole.

Just for kicks. With a benchtop power supply caliibrated to 3.70 volts (nominal LiCo voltage), my SC600w drew 3.12 amps on Turbo. Call it 11.5 watts.Has anyone checked their SC600 or 600w with an ampmeter yet? Curious as to what they pull at the tailcap on turbo.
To give a cell more capacity, you either have to make it larger, or make the anode/cathode separator layer thinner.I saw both the 2900 and 3100 AW cells available from a local retailer and I did wonder why everyone recommends 2900 when they both look the same.

Some manufacturers take the simple approach of making the cell larger, even beyond the standard cell size. This can cause fit problems with precision-machined tubes like the SC600.
Other manufacturers take the more difficult approach of making a thinner separator, so they can pack in more anode and cathode material. This has its own drawbacks, since a thinner separator is more delicate. Heat or physical shock is more likely to cause a cell failure.
I build li-ion battery packs for one of my projects. In my experience, 2600mAH 18650 cells are currently the sweet spot of performance & reliability.

<snip>; have you ever carried a spare battery? What's the safest way to manage it? (Stored in a plastic container?)

I don't understand how pana3100 (NCR18650a) are less reliable than a 2600mah?
Is it just the thinner internals or something?
I've got some 2900 2600 &3100 both protected and non - no problems so far.
The unprotected 3100and 2900 panasonic seem about the same size.
The protected are def larger than the protected 2600.
