I asked about the calculation for fluorescent lamps amperes using volt ampere, that means what is the power factor used ( according to international standard) for fluorescent lamps ?
Yes, fluorescent lamps may be powered by DC but they need a DC lamp controller instead of an AC ballast and starter. The DC lamp controller is more complex. I have a 12V lantern with fluorescent lamp tubes.
Yes, you can you use compact fluorescent bulbs in a garage door opener's lamp holder.

A ballast is an electrical component used with a fluorescent bulb (or mercury vapor lamp or arc lamp) to conduct electricity at each end of the tube. Compact fluorescent light bulbs are dependent on ballast because they use a gas to create light. when the gas is excited by electricity, it emits invisible ultraviolet light that hits the white coating inside the fluorescent bulb. The coating changes the ultraviolet light into light you can see.
CFL stands for Compact Fluorescent Lamp, and they are an energy-efficient alternative to incandescent bulbs. CFL lamps can be used to replace these bulbs, and they can be placed both indoors and outdoors.

Fluorescent lights use far less energy than any of the others listed.
The Advantus Black Computer Fluorescent Desk Lamp is made for that.

A compact fluorescent lamp (CFL), also called compact fluorescent light, energy-saving light, and compact fluorescent tube, is a fluorescent lamp designed to replace an incandescent lamp; some types fit into light fixtures formerly used for incandescent lamps. The lamps use a tube which is curved or folded to fit into the space of an incandescent bulb, and a compact electronic ballast in the base of the lamp.

A CFL, or compact fluorescent lamp, is a type of fluorescent lamp intended to replace traditional incandescent lamps. Advantages of CFL's include lower power use, a longer rated life, and significantly lower greenhouse gas emission. However, these lights tend to have higher purchase prices than those of incandescent alternatives. A CCFL, or cold cathode fluorescent lamp, is any type of fluorescent lamp in which the cathode is not independently heated. Neon lights are common examples of CCFL's.

Xerographic copiers and printers use light. Sometimes the light source is a laser, sometimes an LED, sometimes a specialized fluorescent lamp or flash lamp.
I take it you are referring to a screw in compact fluorescent lamp, am I right? If it screws in the socket and does not touch the metal with the glass part then it was made for the lamp. To see various size CFL lamps for lamps for any light socket visit Bright Commercial Lighting Facebook page. Order the size that will fit your lamp to see better and save energy to.
The starter will send a delayed high voltage electricity to the gas within the fluorescent bulb that cause the gas to be ionized and conduct electricity.
