Well... I have now tried two different nodes...
1) node-red-contrib-lcd20x4-i2c
- Figured out the correct way to communicate
- But NO action on the physical display via NR (Py script on RPi works, so address settings & wiring are correct)
--- I am going to shelve this one as unobtanium
2) node-red-contrib-i2clcd-alt
- No way to easily import, had to learn how to do so manually
- looks simpler to interface, but... noooo

"TypeError: Cannot read property 'localeCompare' of undefined"
New and strange errors that I have yet to find a suitable Google explanation for
