Consider this (bit of anecdotal evidence). I bought the LaCrosse BC-900 battery charger that came with extra set of AA batteries. The batteries were rated at 2300 mAH. They were of some obscure brand name, not LaCrosse of course. No matter how I tried I couldn't charge them past 1200 mAH and the same moment I would start the discharge/charge cycle, the voltage would drop rapidly. Eventually I just threw them away.
My humble, honest, and brutal suggestion is that you spend proper money on proper battery so that it will not let you down when you least expect it. Cheers.
