How many laptops are allowed in hand baggage in European flight?

I am travelling from Riga to Stockholm with AirBaltic flight carrier. I only need my laptops: 11" Chromebook, 15" Lenovo Thinkpad, and 13" Asus Zenbook. The weight is not too much. They all can fit my backpack.

There are three batteries: two integrated (Chromebook and Asus), and one which can be deattached (Lenovo). I did not find any facts about the maximum amount of batteries allowed.

I also would like to take one iPad with me, one Pebble smart watch and one phone (Oneplus 2). I think the situation should be ok. So 6 batteries altogether, but 3 in laptops.

The company I work for does conference management and we often send staff onsite. As they usually use a few laptops for registration and paper upload work most of them have 2-3 laptops in their hand luggage. Flown to the US, Dubai, Turkey, all over the EU with laptops in hand luggage and normal luggage. No-one ever had a problem.

I once entered the US with a suitcase full of electronics (router, switches, cables, 3 laptops, small printers, print server, a few tablets, a small NUC computer) and flew back. Not a peep from any customs.

Ok, the laptops are obviously battered and used and we can show that we work onsite at a convention so obviously they are not for resale, but no-one has actually asked.
