In short, no not all uv lamps are the same. The wattage of each lamp is irrelevant, it's uv output that's the important bit and you have no way of measuring that which is why it's best to stick with the lamp for your chosen system.

The article quoted by Noodle below has fab info in it.

Another thing to bear in mind is you can't always see by eye whether or not a gel is fully cured. So, using the wrong lamp can put you and your clients at risk of over-exposure as well as service breakdown without knowing......
