When I put some of my 3rd party no name batteries in, the battery indicator says there is nothing left. But if I put the battery directly into the camera, indicator says battery is full. Has anyone experience the same?

I can't get past all the bad reviews for all of the after-market grips for the 6D. That tells me that Canon changed something, and nobody else knows exactly what it was. I'll save for a Canon grip. Or put it on my Christmas list for this year.
