He will have to bypass his OBC, but that is correct as the BMS will have a circuit for the charger that limits the voltage. I personally do not like it that way but it does work. A friend bought a lithium pack from a Volt and with that setup described was able to use his Powerdrive charger.

If it were mine and I spent all that money, I would by me an aftermarket smart charger. Most any of them you see now will cover LiPo, LiFo, etc.
