I am not familiar with Canon batteries, but as a matter of prudence I trust
the quality control provided by the manufacturer. Even though there is a
large price difference, can the difference equal the cost of your trip or
the importance of your shots. With a battery you want reliability and little
latent leakage.  It boils down to are you willing to take a risk?

YMMV
