The Aurora is a narrow-beam thrower-only, with non-standard batteries and requires overseas shipping. If you're just looking to see how far away you can light something with a Q5 and you don't mind waiting a couple weeks for it, it'll do.

The Fenixes have a range of beams and reflectors, outputs and runtimes, sizes and battery options, and ships free internationally from a domestic location (Fenix-store.com). The Q5 versions of the L2D, P1D, P2D, P3D, T1, and TK10 are all near/at/above 200 lumens and $60-70.

They are two different kinds of light. One is a thrower with a narrow beam and the other is more EDC type.

Look at what you need/want the light to do. Do you need more medium-close range use or longer range use.
