The ET device most probably reads the voltage drop across a very small (like 0.001 ohm) precision resistor shunt. If current is going the other way into the battery, the voltage read would be negative. Not sure if it can read that.

Patrick (Pdelcast) from CC has indeed stated they are regenerative.
