Anyone else have this issue, when I use a face with weather it seems to really drain battery life on both the versa and my phone.  For example I went to bed lastnight and had just charged my versa so was at 100%, I changed the clock face to one which had weather, woke up this morning 91%.

100 to 91 overnight? 8-9 hours? That's not that much. But, to your point, yes weather clock faces and any clock faces for that matter that need to run and sync data in the background will drain battery more. Question is how much you're willing to sacrifice and how optimized the clock face is.

Perhaps its not much, But I just got the versa a couple of days back coming from a charge 2 that could stay at 100% for nearly a couple of days.

I feel you. Love my charge 2 as well. 😊 But, versa drains faster approximately 1% per hour on average. So, 9% o/n is within the norm. 😊 I use versa a lot - notifications, replies, apps and exeeciex modes with connected gps. My battery lasts on average 4-5 days.
