Electrodes and Cup sizes??

[cubangt]

I think im down to the last 1 electrode that came with the welder when i bought it, so need to pick up some additional, is there recommended type/brand to get? Or is there a guide on picking the right size electrode and cup sizes based on the project?

I read thru this link

http://www.millerwelds.com/resources/communities/mboard/forum/welding-discussions/21944-tig-cup-size-in-relation-to-electrode

and there was mention of welding calculator, found this one: https://www.millerwelds.com/resource...ing-calculator
But is there something just as good say as App or something i can load on my tablet that i use while in the shop to look up information.

thank you
