OK, I checked again and it did not display the message immediately, but after 
about 30 seconds later:

"The Operation and safety of the battery cannot be guaranteed. Continue use?"

Both A7iii and A7Riii. Then you have to do the up arrow and select OK. This 
happens after putting the battery in. Once you do acknowledge with OK it does 
not prompt again until you change out the battery again.
