So dumbledore had this magic necklace that could go back in time. And instead of going back and killing Voldemort as a baby or at least not recruiting him and training him how to be a wizard, he gave it to hermione to take an extra class?

Dumbledore had a Time Turner that allowed people to go back in time. Except instead of going back in time to prevent Voldemort from rising to power, he gave it to Hermione in HP3 so she could take more classes. And then we never see the Time Turner again

Or maybe the time turner had limited power and you could only go back so far or for so long?

McGonagall gave Hermione the Time Turner not Dumbledore.


You could only go back 5 hours with one.

All Time Turners were destroyed in Order of the Phoenix.

You sound like JK Rowling "conveniently" making up stuff to correct plot holes after the damage has already been done

False. There is one case where someone traveled back years: When they were were abducted by Delphini, she used the time-turner to travel back to October 1981 to save her father. She then destroyed it to ensure she would not be forced to return to the present via the five minute restriction.”

That was a 2nd generation Time Turner that was created well after the death of Dumbledore and completely irrelevant in regards to your OP.

I will destroy you in Potter trivia.

LINK has all the FACTS u need.

You can only stay in the past for 6 hours at a time. But there's no limit how far you go.
However, by LINK , two other "true" kind of time-turners were created. The prototype only let the time traveller stay in the past for five minutes, while the improved model let them to stay in the past for as long as they wanted, and return to the future when wanted.

Your links both point out that

A) McGonagall gave Hermione the Time Turner
B) The 2nd Gen Time Turner was invented in 2020.

You should have checked those links before creating this thread.

The First Generation time turner only allowed you to stay in the past for 5 hours at a time. It had no limit to how far back you can go. Show me something that says otherwise, JK Rowling, or keep rewriting the narrative.

From your link:

quote:

Time-Turners that are issued by the Ministry of Magic have an Hour-Reversal Charm placed onto them. They have a limit of travelling back a maximum of five-hours, which is the determined safety limit to the person and the fabrics of time.

The Ministry had a limited quantity which were not easily replaceable. During the Battle of the Department of Mysteries, the Ministry's entire stockpile were destroyed and they were not repaired nor replaced.

Green Chilli has the death stick while you're playing around with a twig you found in the yard. You need to stop and re-evaluate
