It's never hurt mine to charge. I run a one wire alt but I hook the charger up while cooling with water pump and fan on. My alt has been hooked directly to the battery and didn't give problems.
One side note about hooking directly to the battery. If your 1 wire alt does go bad it usually creates a drain on the battery. It will still charge but when the car is off it will drain the battery down.
