I don't have that particular model of Fenix but have a HM71R and the Peax, amongst many others. The Fenix is bulkier but they feel like they're better quality in hand. I prefer the way the Fenix lamps connect to the headband, seems less prone to breaking. I carry the Peax only when I'll want red light. Everything else I grab the Fenix, and imagine if I had a model with red it would be the only one I grab. Also consider Fenix specializes in lighting. Peax is a hunting gear company.
