There are/were 2 different Leica battery chargers....  the one that came
with the M8 ( big,clunky) and the M9 ( sometimes called the Compact
charger).  I also have a Delkin dual battery charger.

On my aftermarket batteries, they work the same.  Batteries that hpold a
charge, hold a charge.  Batteries that are not holding a charge, are not
holding a charge.

Keep in mind that when the battery starts to die, it is time to replace....
not when it is dead as a doorknob.....

If you are a Pro, why argue?  It is YOUR income you are protecting....!

Lew, the only issues I've faced with third party batteries is that some will
not charge in the new M9 charger.
