So easy to use it feels like cheating! The only snag I enountered was that the library actually has the 'X' in its name, i.e. Adafruit_MCP23X17 and of course that was operator error. I can see how I might use more of these in the future as they are so convenient, especially where I have LOADS of wires going to the front panel of a test box for the switches and indicators (not a TFT screen though — it's not fast enough), I can use a couple these in series with just four wires going back to the microcontroller.

Well pleased with the device. The board was well labelled and easy to connect to (I used the solder pads) Easy to use with ESP8266 running Tasmota - board showed up straight away, and was ready for use.
