Looks like 16 hooks. I did read on their sight that you supposedly can hang up to 4 loops from each hook. and then have one or more string of lights per loop.
I've been thinking about that topper also.

I have it and it does indeed have 16 hooks. They are preatty sturdy and in December we will find out if each hook can hold 9 strands of light each (one strand each of red, green and blue braided together times three for each slice/hook).

I made my own, but modeled it after theirs. When it came time to attach the light strands, I used a piece of nylon and tied it to each string and tied that to the hook.

I too made my own from an empty wire spool (plastic). Last year I had my topper attached too, but this year ....
