I am trying to decide which is best, the Weather Channel or The Weather Bug? or does anyone have another choice?
Which does not use up a lot of battery?

I just use the stock News and Weather app for my weather. I have Google Reader so I turned off all the news on it. When you open it it's just weather. Have the widget on a home screen. Need any more information: go to the website. I like it.
I like it as well. I particularly like that you can click on the temperature and get a quick graph of temperature and humidity over time, so you can very efficiently tell what the weather will be over the next 24 hours. It's very cool!
(I've also turned off the news, although I currently use Twitter, rather than RSS, to access news.)
did you ever try Pulse?That's actually funny because that's what I was doing before I got Google Reader. Well, actually: before I got Android. I was using Twitter on my Blackberry to get all my news updates. But I liked how tweets were pushed. When I was using twitter on Android there was a 5 minute delay; which, I turned to an hour to save battery. So not being instant anymore really took away from what I liked about it. Now it's 5 minutes and you got a bunch of tweets. Before it was like hey. Got one. Check it out.
I really enjoy Google Reader. Just wish on some feeds I didn't have to go to the website like on others (for example AC) where it all just comes up in the reader.
And I really like that graph. Simple. Accurate, scrollable. If I need a radar or anything further I'll go to the site.

Does Reader offer the same functionality just not in a pretty package or are there less feed options too?I have. Yes. I liked the UI. Actually a lot. I tend to stick with Google Products that are easy to sync with a check of a box under accounts.
I'm weird like that, lol.
I've been using My-Cast Weather Lite, favorite one I have found so far. I loved the layout of the Weather Channel app on webOS, the Android app just isn't as good for me.
