Default Alpha 4, Triton, and SuperNova technical question

I need to determine the type of charging methodology that is used in these chargers. Basically, using a charger with a negative discharge pulse type charge will damage the ECU if the battery, ECU, and charger is connected in a 'Y' configuration. Does anyone know for certain if any of these chargers mentioned in the tile use negative discharge pluses during the charge process? So far, no word from the manufacturers since they are far too buys selling units

Thanks,

Forgot to ask in the original post. Does anyone know an easy way to determine if they are using negative discharge pluses for myself, and what equipment would I need?

The Alpha4 does NOT employ the use of reverse or "burp" charging. I cannot say for the Triton or Super Nova as I don't own either one.
