ok
Well.. these pen lights need to be carried by licenced people. I work for Telstra and we require the use of these lamps to verify certain things which are written in UV reflective materials. This ensures that the writing is not visible in normal conditions and not under the visible spectrum. I take this torch with me on night caches (useless in the day unless you have super human vision) and use it when near the cache. If the cache has the slightest spec of white or a high spectrum colur it lights up the neighbourhood
Its quite a handy thing to have. (unless you own a pair of NVG's and this.. then your really cooking)

Regulation
I should say they are regulated. Any UV equipment is now regulated. its only because they can be modified readily and they have the power to be used as "Flash Blinders" which can disable ones eyesight for a period of 2 seconds.. they are fairly dangerous
