A pneumatic earth boring tool includes a cylindrical body, a transmitter mounted in the body, the transmitter generating a signal usable for operating the earth boring tool, a linear generator mounted in the body for generating an electrical current to power the transmitter and a rectifier for converting the electrical current produced by the linear generator to direct current. Electrical power generated by the linear generator is used to power the transmitter to generate a signal useful for locating the tool.
