I've just bought a couple of non-Milwaukee replacements for my 12v tools online. Cheaper, higher capacity, and they're working just fine so far. I can't speak for the 18v alternatives; maybe someone else has tried them.

I've had some off-brand M12 batteries stop charging after a while - they make the charger flash an error. I haven't bought any aftermarket M18s.

Duds are sold too, I'm sure. At work, we use Makitas with off-brand batteries; no problem with those.
