The following is taken from my course notes, but not tried all myself!

Warming granulated honey to produce soft set 90f/32c for 2-3 days
Blending 2 or more types of honey 100f/38c as necessary to reach a uniform temp
Preparing liquid stored honey for jarring 120 f/49c for 24 hours
Preparing Heather honey for filtration 120 f/49c as necessary to reach a uniform temp
Preparing solid stored honey for jarring 125f/52c for 2-3 days
Removing granulated honey from comb 125f/52c until all the honey is removed
Postpone granulation in jarred honey before sale 145f/63c for 1 hour
To liquefy coarse grained honey prior to seeding (the Dyce Method) 150f/66c until liquid (a close watch needed here)

The temps are for a warming cabinet with no hot spots and ideally a fan to circulate heat

Just got a digital stat from HK via flea bay for my warming cabinet project, only £11 Inc postage 220v

Thanks. That was the sort of info I needed. Oliver's answer was probably correct, but not much use, but then I work in IT, so I often get questions answered like that.
