What could be a typical effect of trying to dive with ineffective lighting?

Diving with ineffective lighting can lead to increased risk of disorientation. Effective lighting is crucial for underwater navigation, especially during night dives or in limited visibility conditions. Poor or inadequate lighting can obscure important visual cues, making it difficult to determine your orientation and surroundings. This disorientation can lead to confusion and potentially dangerous situations, such as losing your way or inadvertently approaching hazardous areas.

While effective lighting can enhance visibility and allow divers to appreciate the vibrant colors of marine life, ineffective lighting does not improve these aspects. Therefore, when the light source is inadequate, divers might find themselves in unfamiliar settings without a clear view, intensifying the risk of becoming disoriented.
