I doubt that.  They were specially designed for this application.  They can 
only put out half an amp so they can't do much damage very fast.  You can put 
one on and let it run for a few hours and then measure the terminal voltage.  
Then compare that to what your alternator puts out.

But I've used one on the TR6 for 4 months or more and the battery is just 
fine.
