An average AA battery will have 3-4 Watt-hours of capacity.

This 3V at 180mA is 13 Watt-hours in a day.

So think of it like consuming about 4 x AA batteries every day, or almost 1500 x AA batteries jn a year.

You can do a lot with that amount of energy. You won’t be powering a switch or computer, but it’s orders of magnitude more power than small battery operated devices can use.
