How cold was it outside? Are you sure your batteries were adequately warmed before launch?
You probably bought a crappy aftermarket battery because you were looking for the best price possible. Low price is a not a good reason to buy an aftermarket. I currently have eight P2 batteries and they all fly. Four of them are aftermarkets. My most reliable ones are the legit DJI ones, of course. I also have maybe four retired P2 batteries, three of them crappy aftermarkets, the good DJI one cracked in a crash. Point is, if you're going to buy aftermarket, try to get one that has good reviews and then be willing to spend some money for it. I think you'll have better luck.
There are some advantages to flying the P2 series ACs - the main one being there are far less headaches when it comes to restricted zones, NFZs, TFRs, etc. Also there are no new FW headaches. No surprises. Just launch and fly.
So maybe don't give up so easily...
Good luck
