I have a TSL2561 #439 which I intended to use with a 16x2 LCD shield #772 on a Arduino UNO.
The TSL2561 is a 3.3v device and the LCD is a 5v device. According to the specs these two
devices can't be on the I2c pins at the same time.
Is there any way to get these three to work together? Or do I need to find a 3.3v LCD.
Thanks.

Thanks.
That looks like exactly what I need. I don't know how I managed to overlook it.
