What is considered safe when dumping capacitor into a battery?

The battery has the following ratings

Standard Charging Voltage 14.6 (+-) 0.2V
Standard Continuous Charging 20A
Max Continuous Charging 100A

Now this ratings are for DC, but when dumping using pulsed DC capacitor, the effect is different right? 

What would be the max voltage that's safe to dump into a 12v battery from a capacitor? 
How much does amp matter when dumping from capacitor to battery? 
Does the frequency of the dump matter?

Thanks!
Because it's pulsed the sudden amps a second is just for a moment most batteries can handle double, Bedini did 24 volts at around 20000uf dumps into car 12v battery.
