I just got a BMP280 and it seems to work OK
I used the node-red-contrib-bme280 node
[{"id":"9dfe3beb.19da28","type":"Bme280","z":"c0cf297.f9d51d8","name":"","bus":"1","address":"0x76","topic":"bme280","extra":false,"x":880,"y":180,"wires":[["2360c09e.8b35d"]]},{"id":"2360c09e.8b35d","type":"debug","z":"c0cf297.f9d51d8","name":"","active":true,"tosidebar":true,"console":false,"tostatus":false,"complete":"false","x":1130,"y":180,"wires":[]},{"id":"c090494e.d03398","type":"inject","z":"c0cf297.f9d51d8","name":"","topic":"","payload":"","payloadType":"date","repeat":"","crontab":"","once":false,"onceDelay":0.1,"x":680,"y":180,"wires":[["9dfe3beb.19da28"]]}]
I made sure it was connected OK using i2cdetect - y 1
and ran this python prog as well to make sure everything worked outside of Node-RED first
