UB: to answer your question, since a lunar eclipse is generally seen by more people for a longer period of time, we take into account for kiddush levanah and we don’t say it after a lunar eclipse. Since a solar eclipse is seen by fewer people and for a very short period of time, we still use the average molad to calculate the zman for kiddush levanah.
My understanding of what Rabbi Heber stated.
