This is only a theoretical question, for I could not find a practical comparison neither here, or elsewhere on the www.
If we were to take an N watt CO2 LASER, and an N watt LED panel, and then focus the entire light output from the latter, would the heat generated on a fixed point on a surface closely resemble that from the former, if their wavelengths match? Say 445nM.
AFAIK, LEDs are marginally less efficient than LDs, especially at large amperages. How would this perform at say, 40w?
