I was curious so I ran a test of the Luxeon Dental vs. small UV LED, used pieces of Post-It Fluorescent tabs (670-5AF), and BIC highlighers "Brite Liner Fluorescent" (BLP5W).
Neither LED had additional focusing lenses.
Luxeon Dental:
LXHL-BRD1
Radiometric Power: 140mW
Peak Output Wavelength: 460nm
Electrical Power: 3.42V * 350mA = 1.197 Watts

BIVAR UV LED (Glass and Metal, not cheap acrylic/epoxy)
UV-305-TO92
Radiometric Power: 5mW
Peak Output Wavelength: 395nm
Electrical Power: 3.42V * 20mA = 0.075 Watts
