I wouldn't trust or recommend any non-Apple battery, due to the number of problems reported with "knockoff" batteries. Also, there is no assurance that knockoff batteries have the same charging technology that Apple uses, involving the battery, the MagSafe adapter and the Mac's logic board.

Intel-based Apple Portables: How to replace or service a built-in battery

This should answer most, if not all, of your battery/charging questions:
