Being smaller the 10% underdrive is likely slightly lighter. But the main purpose of the 10% underdrive version is to reduce the accessory load on the engine (turn the alternator and AC pump slower) thus freeing up a engine power for increased performance.

An under drive pulley and any type of system will lead to a constantly dead battery, even with upgraded alternators and the like.

Well yea, but I am sure you did it the right way. I remember one of those audio guys in the forums was complaining about the dead battery and he had all sorts of crazy stuff going on as well.
