Hi Rob,There are dozens of people on the site who have the power to feature things, including regular users aside from admins. If none of these people have felt inclined to feature your projects, it's unfair to conclude the system is flawed and should be done away with (as you said: feature all, or get rid of it).What that means is your projects did not strike a chord with people and hit that "wow factor" that is mentioned in the featuring guidelines: https://www.instructables.com/topics/Featuring-Che...To me, you've got one good project separated into two Instructables which limits the appeal of both.

I think these two projects could reasonably be combined into one, perhaps with a more generally enticing title that helps people know the usefulness of the full project. Maybe "Complete Wireless Doorbell System" or something similar.If you did that, I think it would push it over to the level where it would be featured. Just 2 cents :)

It's a bit hard to get past that alone, but once I do, the rest of the info looks very good. Maybe stick a mention of your company in the very last step and remove it from the intro so it's not so "in your face".
