In Guardians of the Galaxy #29 Charlie-27 states that Puff Adder can increase his mass to over 5 tons, the limit of what Charlie-27 can lift on Earth. Puff Adder can only remain fully inflated for approximately fifteen minutes at a time. Puff Adder also possesses a slight degree of superhuman strength and stamina.
