The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.

- It is really an integrator measuring the quantity of charge discharged through it.
- It can be either of the moving coil or moving magnet type.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Ballistic galvanometer article was read about 2,100 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 40 and blocks with 13: each hit it takes is cut by 5 %.
