So I have Luma3DS + boot9strap + the other usual stuff on my New 3DS XL. Lately, randomly the power LED starts flashing red and then the system pretends to turn off. However, the battery is not actually low and the red power LED comes out of nowhere. This happens with full battery as well.

Any idea what's going on with it? I feel like Luma3DS might be doing something weird, but I don't know.

when i used to repair 3ds consoles, if i held the battery against the terminals with not much pressure, the 3ds would turn on to a red light,
I would suggest bending the contacts slightly, or placing a piece of card above the battery to a good contact

You can run a battery duration test with 3DS Battery Checker.

Examine if your battery is inflated, bulging, or swollen. :!: An oompa loompa battery or one that you can use as a fidget spinner needs to be immediately removed and replaced.

Official Nintendo SPR-003 battery will total about US $22 after tax & shipping.
-or-

3rd party comparable Cameron Sino comes out to US $13 with free shipping. You can try bargaining an lower offer price at US $10-8 with the second link.
