+The BH1750 board uses I2C for communication which requires two pins to
+communicate with the device. Configuring the I2C bus must be done in user code
+(not library code). This approach has been adopted so it can be done once and
+will better support the various options for different platforms.
+
+A common module containing the BH1750 component is the GY-30 shown below.

 ## Overview
 
-The BH1750 has six different measurment modes. They are divided in two groups;
-continuous and one-time measurments. In continuous mode, the sensor continuously
-measures lightness value. In one-time mode, sensor makes only one measurment, and
-then goes into Power Down mode after this.
+The BH1750 has six different measurment modes which are divided in two groups;
+continuous and one-time measurments. In continuous mode the sensor
+continuously measures lightness value. In one-time mode, the sensor makes only
+one measurment and then goes into Power Down mode.
 
-Each mode, has three different precisions:
+Each mode has three different precisions:
 
   - Low Resolution Mode - (4 lx precision, 16ms measurment time)
   - High Resolution Mode - (1 lx precision, 120ms measurment time)
   - High Resolution Mode 2 - (0.5 lx precision, 120ms measurment time)
 
-By default, this library uses Continuous High Resolution Mode, but you can set
-any other mode by passing the mode argument to BH1750.begin().
+By default, this library uses Continuous High Resolution Mode, but you can
+change this to a different mode by passing the mode argument to
+BH1750.begin().
 
-Remember, if you use One-Time mode, your sensor will go into Power Down mode
-when it completes the measurment and you've read it.
+When the One-Time mode is used your sensor will go into Power Down mode when
+it completes the measurment and you've read it. When the sensor is powered up
+again it returns to the default mode which means it needs to be reconfigured
+back into One-Time mode. This library has been implemented to automatically
+reconfigure the sensor when you next attempt a measurement so you should not
+have to worry about such low level details.
 
-Typical Connection:
+The datasheet for the BH1750 chip can be obtained [here](http://www.elechouse.com/elechouse/images/product/Digital%20light%20Sensor/bh1750fvi-e.pdf)
 
-  - VCC -> 5V (3V3 on Arduino Due, Zero, MKR1000, etc)
-  - GND -> GND
-  - SCL -> SCL (A5 on Arduino Uno, Leonardo, etc or 21 on Mega and Due on esp8266 free selectable)
-  - SDA -> SDA (A4 on Arduino Uno, Leonardo, etc or 20 on Mega and Due on esp8266 free selectable)
-  - ADD -> GND or VCC (see below)
 
-ADD pin is used to set sensor I2C address. If it has voltage greater or equal to
-0.7VCC voltage (e.g. you've connected it to VCC) the sensor address will be
-0x5C. In other case (if ADD voltage less than 0.7 * VCC) the sensor address will
-be 0x23 (by default).
+## Installation
+
+Click "Clone or download" -> "Download ZIP" button.
+
+  - **(For Arduino >= 1.5.x)** Use the way above, or Library Manager. Open Arduino
+    IDE, click `Sketch -> Include library -> Add .ZIP library ` and select the
+    downloaded archive.
+
+  - **(For Arduino < 1.5.x)** Extract the archive to
+    ``<Your User Directory>/My Documents/Arduino/libraries/`` folder and rename it
+    to `BH1750`. Restart IDE.
+
+The following YouTube [video](https://youtu.be/ACTMQvPVMLs) (specifically from
+7:20 onwards) provides a good overview of installing this library and loading
+an example using the Arduino IDE.

 ## Example
 
+An example using the BH1750 library in conjunction with the GY-30 board
+(which contains the BH1750 component) is presented below. The example
+code uses the BH1750 library in the default continuous high precision
+mode when making light measurements.

+### Wiring
+
+Connections:
+
+  - VCC -> 3V3 or 5V
+  - GND -> GND
+  - SCL -> SCL (A5 on Arduino Nano, Uno, Leonardo, etc or 21 on Mega and Due, on esp8266 free selectable)
+  - SDA -> SDA (A4 on Arduino Nano, Uno, Leonardo, etc or 20 on Mega and Due, on esp8266 free selectable)
+  - ADD -> NC/GND or VCC (see below)
+
+The ADD pin is used to set the sensor I2C address. By default (if ADD voltage
+less than 0.7 * VCC) the sensor address will be 0x23. If it has voltage
+greater or equal to 0.7VCC voltage (e.g. you've connected it to VCC) the
+sensor address will be 0x5C.
+
+Wiring up the GY-30 sensor board to an Arduino is shown in the diagram below.
