No but it may fail is some way that is not possible if the official unit
was used, or in such a way as to point to the grip as the culprit, and
request it be returned for replacement. Now I suppose you could refuse
but they might become suspicious. I've had warranted repair denied
because my MX camera had been abused, abuse which I am sure happened
after it left my possession on it's way to Pentax repair. Yes, it was a
long time ago.

It looks just like the original. If you get it and something goes wrong
with the camera it probably voids the warranty.
So if something goes wrong and you send the camera for warranty work,
would you leave a third party accessory attached to point out your
brand disloyalty? How could Pentax know that a third party accessory
had been used?
It reminds me of the brand (forgotten which one) which recently
declared that use of third party batteries would void a camera's
warranty. Do they have snoop-ware in the firmware that can sniff out
non-compliant attachments and create a hidden log-file?
