You will need:

• NodeMCU
• 20x4 lcd i2c
• wires
  
• soldering iron
• cardboard

Step 2: Wiring

Connect lcd to nodemcu

Hi DaniilZ,
Thank you for this project ! Just one question ...
Impossible to get the LCD running ... nothing on the screen ... do you have an idea (I've test 2 different LCD and NodeMCU).
Thanks in advance and have a great day.

Hey Frederic. I was working on this project two days ago and lately I probably discovered what would cause that when I burnt my screen with an external 12V adapter.

There are two versions of those screens in terms of input voltage. The one I had was working perfectly with Arduino Uno but not with NodeMCU. There are two pins to provide voltage to peripherals: VIN which is 5V and 3.3V. I tried both but didn’t work out anyway. I purchased two different voltage versions today so I will let you know if this is the issue. Btw the VIN pin didn’t work because I was using a RasPi usb plug to power it.
