Is aether on my Henry better than bonfire?

I prefer Bonfire/Ignis, to be honest. My Henry (not +10, by the way) doesn't take much damage from units, even able to tank units like L!Ephraim, and blast them to smithereens with an Ignis blast to the face.

The sustain is definitely nice, but, in my opinion, it's not really 'needed' a lot of the time, unless you're trying to have him tank a Regnal Astra to the face... He might be able to survive that. Haven't checked, though.

I'd say Bonfire can grant you more kills more efficiently.

But Aether is a lot more fun to use imo, and grants you more Arena points if you're invested into that.

In the end though, I'd go fore Bonfire usually. Use Aether for PvP content I'd say

Kudos to you for running Henry, love the character, so sad he isn’t as good in heroes.
I’d go for bonfire to make use of his high def.
Aether just doesn’t do enough to heal off the damage in my opinion.
