Completely new to POSs. I know that this isn't the most relevant place to put this thread, but I know that a lot of Wormholers use POSs, so I was hoping ot get some advice.

For a 4/5 day stay in a C2 wormhole (which would involve ratting, running sites, exploration and gas mining), what would I need to bring. I know that they use fuel, and how much they use, but what would be the best POS size to use, and what would I need to bring to anchor to it.

Sorry if I sound like a complete noob: it's because I am Lol

in my experience small pos is just staging,easy to destroy and een can be solo'ed you should take a medium tower as its decent and allow more industry.

be aware that pos structures are going to e taken off within pretty amount of time so should upgrade to citadel sush astrahus

Small POS, 10*24*(days) relevant race's fuel blocks, corporate hangar array for ships and personal storage array (since you're probably alone), enough strontium for 12-24 hours or so (just so you can't get popped while you're offline, I'd go for as less as possible for DST cargo space saving).

Super easy put down, put up, really easy tear down, no real loss if it goes pop. Probably all fits in a DST or two and whatever ships you want to bring in.

No hardeners, no guns, no ECM, no ammo. Light running, move in, make your money, move out. Rinse repeat.

You don't need a POS for a 4-5 day stay in a C2...

You would think that having a 24hr re-inforce timer would mean you also could anchor / unanchor in that time - because its not like there's any asset safety mechanics to worry about.
