'Five points from Gryffindor!' Percy said tersely, FINGERING HIS 
PREFECT BADGE. 

ME: I had always thought that Percy had fingered his badge to remind Ron (and perhaps himself) that Percy has authority over Ron and over other students. But if the badges are indeed how Prefects take/add points, wouldn't the teachers also have a similar device? There is no canon evidence that shows the teachers have such things. If the Prefects do use them to take/add points, wouldn't they use them to their House's advantage?
