It always succeeds on a second attempt and then works reliably. It just makes for a slow startup while developing and testing. Logs below, if there is anyt...

What sort of equivalent baud rate can you get out of i2c?

I managed to get this going with help from the HiveMQ forum which seem more active than this one :( For the benefit of anyone else struggling with this in future...
