Will you be wild camping ? as I take 1 power pack and charge it up at campsites

I always carry to much luggage when touring so this year I have gone for a 1 man Helm 1 compact tent this is more due to pack size than weight, I have all so reduced my panniers to 4 x 12.5 litres hopefully this should reduce the weight I carry and give the bike a nice balance heaviest paniers on th...
