CHEAP NP-F960 BATTERIES - QUESTION	Can't Post

Does anybody have any experience with the cheap NP-F960 batteries which are made in China and which cost a fraction of the cost of Sony brand NP-F960 batteries ?
I would appreciate if someone really tell me about this (someone who has really bought one of this) and not just speculate just by saying since they are cheap and not Sony they must be bad. Please, let me know ...
It is quite a big difference, $25 for one made in China vs. $100 for one made in Japan.
