Switch battery with USB-C connector

I'd like to swap the magsafe charger/battery with a usb-c charger so that I can use an external usb battery charger. Would this be possible or is this too much work to make it worth it?

Answered! View the answer I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Sorry Tom not even possible! You'll need to sell your MacBook Pro and buy the new MacBook to gain that function.

The charging/power logic can't be converted to be compatible with the new USB-C interface and meet the power needs of your system.

@celikosan - Tom is not looking for a converter so he can charge/power his USB devices. He's looking at modifying his MacBook Pro so it can be powered via a USB-C charger.
