Highly Recommended - Better than 5 Star
We would highly recommend Lumos. If we could give them more than 5 stars we would.From quote to installation and after sales service, we found Damien and his team to be outstanding, providing high quality service at a very reasonable price.
Damien’s knowledge of the solar industry is exceptional and his advice on the best system for us took the stress out of decision-making and made the whole process very easy.
We put in a 13.2kW solar system with a 10kWHybrid Inverter and 25kW battery. We also replaced our old (inefficient) solar hot water system with a heat pump (on Damien’s advice) and we are so happy with it.
Josh, Issac and Logan did an excellent job installing the whole system. The quality of their work is outstanding and, as an added bonus, they are genuinely lovely young tradies – personable and courteous.
We were particularly impressed with Josh. Not only did he spot a few issues with existing electrics (and fixed them), his excellent communication and customer service skills ensured we were kept well informed and updated every step of the way.
We were also very impressed with how clean and tidy the boys were and how respectful they were when entering our house – work boots off every time. Having had many trades through our house over the past 3 months, I can say that this level of care is uncommon, and very much appreciated.
If you’re considering a solar system, or any electrical work, we strongly recommend going with Damien and his team at Lumos.

Excellent product and service
Lumos Electrical supplied and installed a battery and hybrid inverter for my existing panel array in Bulli NSW. Everything is working perfectly. I have not imported any electricity from the grid since the install, which was on time, very professional, tidy. Software app for monitoring production, battery status and imports/exports to grid is excellent. They removed the old inverter, I assume for re-cycling, and installed a smoke alarm and bollard as per regulations.They connected the wiring so the battery will power selected lights and appliances in event of a blackout.
I can highly recommend Lumos if you want a quality battery system at an excellent price.
Battery rating: 5/5

Better than 5 star
My initial contact was via phone to gain general knowledge of the overall Solar system we should install. Damien from Lumos Electrical Contracting gave me plenty of his time and I was very impressed with his knowledge and common sense answers and approach to my queries. This was followed up by a site visit where he actually went onto the roof to confirm the space available for the panels which indicated more than could be assessed from Google maps. Neither of the previous two contractors went to this trouble.We installed 30 Aiko panels, a Sungrow 25kwh battery and a Sungrow 10kw inverter. I considered the quote very reasonable.
The installation process went very well with a team of 5 initially that were all very polite and friendly as well as going about their work quietly, professionally and without fuss. They were all very particular about being tidy, didn't wear shoes in the house and cleaned up after they finished.
I couldn't recommend Lumos highly enough. It was a real pleasure to have tradesman go about their work without any issues.

13kw system for new house build
Very happy with service from Lumos installing a new 13kw solar system on our new home. Damien took the time to meet on-site before providing a quote. This allowed us to troubleshoot with the builder the best way to install, as builder had already installed gyprock making things a little trickier. Damien provided a prompt quote and then his team were able to get the conduit installed promptly just before Christmas so we didn't hold up the builder....subsequently installed the full system in the New Year and very happy with the job and service provided. Would highly recommend.Supplier Reply:
Hi Lachlan,Thank you for the kind words mate - thanks for letting us be a part of your amazing new home!

Excellent value for money
Excellent service throughout. Delivered the cheapest quote for exactly what we were after. They even installed the backup system that other vendors wanted to charge extra for. Looking forward to their return to install extra modules to the Sungrow batteryPanel rating: 5/5

Quality install
Took the time to do onsite quote. The install team were punctual, tidy and a pleasure to deal with.A quality install. Used recognised brands, demonstrated attention to detail with positioning of the inverter. Great customer service with induction on the app.
Strong recommend.
GivEnergy Battery Install - Highly Recommend!
Damien came out to quote on a Solar Battery install. Gave me some great, no BS, advice and a very reasonable quote. Josh came out to do the install and has done a very neat and professional installation. Damien came out for the commissioning and to give me a run down of the app and how to manage the battery. Everything from start to finish has been well-managed with great communication and execution. Would (and have) definitely recommend.Panel rating: 5/5
