On September 27, 2001 construction of KamLAND was completed and the commissioning hase began. KamLAND is a 1 kton liquid scintillator detector with approximately 2000 photomultiplier tubes, the main goal is to perform a long base-line ( 200km) reactor anti-neutrino measurement which would be sensitive to neutrino oscillation parameters in the large mixing angle MSW solution to the solar neutrino problem. KamLAND is using waveform digitizers and deadtime-less electronics to readount the detector and enabme advanced background identification. The detector is also suitable to trigger on supernovae and to detect low energy anti-neutrinos from a variety of other source on the earth and in space. The direct detection of Be7 solar neutrino is also a possible task for the future. I will present details of some of the early engineering data and an discuss the future running conditions of the experiment.
