Hi all, I am looking at a pair of new spotlights 12v 55watt to fit into the existing
positions on my B7001 hood (bonnet). I know these will draw a lot more current but with a good battery will I still get a decent light/time before the battery goes flat. Could I fit a lower watt globes?
Can anyone tell me how many amps the dynamo in this kubota has?

Or as another option would a pair of these LED lights be more useful, wider span of light at a much less power, if I can find a pair to fit.

I'm not sure how many amps your generator puts out but I can tell you it's not much. The H-3s in the first set will keep it working pretty hard. I would go with LEDs, either replace the H-3s and use the housing or buy complete LED units that will fit the holes.

You don't want to be draining your battery regularly as it will kill it.

I put LEDs in my B8200 housings and they work really well. Really low current draw and brighter than the original bulbs.
