I've moved your post to the Real Estate Forum. At that top of this forum is a link to state laws on Landlord/Tenant relations.

Generally grace periods are NOT stautory. Rent is due on the date the lease says its due. The lease may specify a grace period, but if it doesn't then you don't have one.

As for smoke detectors, check with your local firehouse, they should know the law on smoke detectors.

As for the light, unless you have her promise in writing, you don't have any recourse.
