My Chartplotter has an anchor alarm, but it drains the batteries quickly. does anyone have a suggestion for an inexpensive backup, like a handheld gps with anchor alarm?
Thoughts?

Inexpensive is relative. I use
Anchor Watch ($2) on my IPad. It will email me when I'm ashore! Which I can get on a smart phone, with an alarm if the
anchor drags. Run in the background and shut monitor off and the battery will last all day.
