In one place it says 3.8W, but in the description at the top left, it says that package style is good for 2W. Either way, a smaller heatsink area means less power dissipation. They don't really make it clear whether the through-hole version is capable of more than the surface mount version, but the only real difference between the two is the way the legs are bent, so I wouldn't think there would be a difference.
