I've only had a quick look but imo this is a better buy?
I've got a 4x T5s maxibright reflector unit its excellent for seedlings to small thick plants.

I'm going to wait till the light is here then take new clones. I'll get some seeds growing too. I'm getting ready to harvest some jungle boys space center these clones are all Caranado blue Sunday driver

Yes they are ideal 65k, if you like diy you can knock a reflector together and cover the surface with litetite/mylar, they burn cool enough not to have any effect on it, mylar the heavy stuff can also withstand a lot of heat and 97% reflectivity.

I've tried taking clones later into flowering and I found that 2 weeks seemed to be the cutoff for it to work best. First thing I noticed was a decrease in percentage of successful rooting, but the later they were taken, the more my clones would do weird stuff. Like root, sit there and do nothing, or root and continue to grow, but not vegetatively. 4, 5 + weeks in, if they rooted, they'd very slowly try to grow buds in the cloner, but in a super weird way that didn't even look like weed. If they didn't die doing that, they had to be under 18/6 for another month to go back to veg growth. So the clones taken too late wouldn't be able to get going in time to be swapped back in to the cycle. (staged harvest every 2 weeks)

Sorry for the delay in replying, yes it's best to take clones early but if for whatever reason you need to take a clone during flowering it'll root and grow.
That strange growth you get initially does grow out and revert back to full vegitive mode.

Some people like to wait until they are in flower before taking clones due to the growth pattern.

Your 3/4 of the way there, haven't you any roots yet, or have you binned them?

No roots I plan on the binning them when the light comes Thursday and starting fresh.
When I take clones this time 5 inches 1.5-2 inches under foam three on top. Take clone from 1inch past nodule.
Clone water adjust ph to 5.3. Water temp 75+- 2 degree. I won't scrape stem. I won't use Clonex gel. I will use CloneX solution.

Lights will be blue t5 x4 6500. Timer set on pump 45 seconds on/ 45 seconds off.

Thanks for help! Hopefully someone reads this someday that is struggling.
