I need a charger for 4 200 amp hour LiFePO4 Battery's wired in parallel. Should I use the Blue Smart IP22 Charger or the Victron Energy Blue Smart IP65 12-Volt Battery Charger (Bluetooth)? What is the difference between 3 output and 1 output?

IP65: max 25A
IP22: max 30A
Phoenix Smart IP43: max 50A
3 outputs means, you can charge 3 independent batteries which is not helpful since your batteries are already in parallel.
The Phoenix Smart IP43 (1+1) can additionally trickle charge a starter battery with 3A.
I would go for Phoenix Smart IP43 due to the higher amps
