What Are Zonai Device Dispensers?
The Zonai Device Dispensers are one of the only ways to get new Zonai Devices. You can put Zonai Materials in and the dispenser will give you Zonai Devices in return. These Zonai Devices are called Zonai Capsules when they haven't been used. Depending on the Zonai Material, you may get a lot of Zonai Devices, or you may only get a couple. The best items to put into these dispensers are the Large Zonai Charges. You can also put regular Zonai Charges or any materials you get from Zonai Constructs. Each dispenser has 3-6 different Zonai Devices it can give Link.
Zonai Device Dispenser Locations
There are 28 known Zonai Device dispensers in the game. 2 of these locations are in The Depths, 3 are on the surface of Hyrule, and the remaining 23 are found in the Sky Islands above Hyrule. This can make finding these locations difficult. If you are wanting to get the most out of Zonai Device Dispensers, you will need to insert Zonai Material. For every Zonai Construct Horn (regardless of type) you will get one Zonai Devices. For each Zonai Charge, you will get 2 Zonai Devices. Finally, if you insert a Large Zonai Change, you can obtain 10 Zonai Devices. Here is each Zonai Device Dispenser and the Zonai Devices they give Link.

All Zonai Device Descriptions
After finding all 28 Zonai Device Dispensers, you should have 27 Zonai Devices. If you want to know which Zonai Devices are the best, you can check out the top 10 here. Here is a list of all Zonai Devices in the game and their descriptions.
|
Zonai Device |
Description |
|
|---|---|---|
|
Fan |
A Zonai device that produces wind with its internal propeller. It's likely that the Zonai made smart use of this wind power to transport objects and generate thrust. |
|
Wing |
A Zonai device that can harness lift to ride the wind. To fly farther, try balancing in the center of the wing. |
|
Cart |
A Zonai device built to move efficiently over flat surfaces. Apply force to get it moving, so long as it has a power source. |
|
Balloon |
A Zonai device that rises when filled with hot air. The hotter the air, the quicker it rises. |
|
Rocket |
A Zonai device that produces powerful thrust. It packs a punch but burns out quickly. |
|
Time Bomb |
A Zonai device for a timed explosion. Its blast can activate other Zonai devices. |
|
Portable Pot |
A Zonai device for cooking food almost anytime, anywhere. It lasts for cooking one recipe only. |
|
Flame Emitter |
A Zonai device that shoots fire. It's thought to have been originally used as protection from monsters. |
|
Frost Emitter |
A Zonai device that blasts out freezing air, handy for slowing and defeating some monsters. Also, some materials change their properties when exposed to very cold air. |
|
Shock Emitter |
A Zonai device that shoots a shocking bolt from its horn when struck. Oddly, only the horn conducts the bolt. The rest of the head is safe to hold. |
|
Beam Emitter |
A Zonai device that shoots a light beam from its horn, inflicting damage at great range. |
|
Hydrant |
A Zonai device that gushes water when struck. According to legend, sky islands saw water shortages long ago but became lush and fertile thanks to this technology. |
|
Steering Stick |
A Zonai device that can control direction when attached to a conveyance. It'll activate all connected Zonai devices at once. |
|
Big Wheel |
A powered Zonai device that wants to move! It's a big, mean wheel that excels at tearing through environments that might challenge smaller wheels. It can handle shallow water. |
|
Small Wheel |
A powered Zonai device that spins quickly and is best suited for flat surfaces. It doesn't traverse hills, or even bumps, very well. |
|
Sled |
A Zonai device with a slick underside that minimizes friction. Probably used to convey things over grass and sand in ancient times. |
|
Battery |
A Zonai device that holds concentrated Zonai-charge energy. Use it to provide temporary power for other Zonai devices. |
|
Big Battery |
A battery with an improved compression rate. Though disposable, it holds multiple times as much energy as a normal battery. |
|
Spring |
A Zonai device that contracts and then expands with enough power to bounce objects away from it. |
|
Canon |
A Zonai device that fires shots in intervals. The shot explodes when hitting the target. It’s a powerful device, but it can be tricky to get the firing angle just right. |
|
Stabilizer |
A perfectly balanced Zonai device that stands upright when activated. It was used to secure footholds in unstable places, such as sky islands. |
|
Hover Stone |
A Zonai device that can defy gravity and hang in place. Ages ago, the Zonai may have used this technology to create islands that float in the sky. |
|
Light |
A Zonai device that can bring light to dark places. It shines in one direction, and its light doesn’t reach too far, but it can come in handy on dark roads or in caves. |
|
Stake |
A Zonai device that can be fixed in place in the ground or on a wall. They’ve been used as footholds and building foundations because of their immovability when planted. |
|
Mirror |
A Zonai device that focuses and reflects light. It can provide powerful, long-distance illumination that can ward off some monsters. |
|
Homing Cart |
A Zonai device that automatically heads for monsters. It’s believed to have been used by the Zonai as a security measure. |
|
Construct Head |
A Zonai device that always faces whatever it deems an enemy. Attach a combat Zonai device to the head for homing attacks. |
