How to change the measurement mode? #9

With the default setting in this library, the maximum monitored lux is lower than 30,000 lx. Since BH1750 can capture up to 65535 lx, how to change the sensor configuration to LOW resolution for recording bright light?

import adafruit_bh1750
from adafruit_bh1750 import Resolution

bh = adafruit_bh1750.BH1750(i2c)
bh.resolution = Resolution.LOW

^ works for me
