Don't use a heavy load when calibrating a new third party battery. It may affect the health of the third party battery. You want the battery to behave normally during the calibration phase. After the calibration phase, use the battery as you wish. But beware that the quality of third party Lithium batteries is extremely poor even when purchased from a respected vendor.
