Apr 26, 2019 at 14:32 comment added tlfong01 Yes, your friend is right, never use 5V in pi. The LCD tutorial are usually from Arduino days when everybody is using 5V. About logic level converter I always listen to this guy - ​"An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of Cure": Benjamin Franklin.

Apr 26, 2019 at 14:18 comment added pisar I followed my friend's instruction who told me "Never use 5V in PI" even though tutorial about i2c lcd said 5V. I just thought that 3V3 will be safer. What I'm gonna do is connect lcd to 5V. The question is should I connect DHT to 5V as well? In datasheet is 3.5~5.5V DC so 5V seems proper. Am I right? Can I connect lcd directly to 5V RPI output or should I use logic converter?
